Eiger Nordwand
Track Length: 2,436 m / Elevation Difference: 90 m / Number of Corners: 11 / Longest Straight: 250 m
Return to the iconic Kleine Scheidegg with this revival of a classic GT original circuit, nestled just below the north face of the Eiger, one of the most renowned locations in the Swiss Alps. The track runs past the Jungfrau Railway station at an elevation of 2,016 meters above sea level, featuring a technical layout of tight hairpin corners that twist left and right. With minimal room to maneuver and constant elevation changes, running a clean lap demands peak concentration and advanced driving skills. A pit area in the tunnel at the course's end makes this track ideal for full-scale races.
5. An Extra Menu will be added to the Café.
