Berchtesgaden

those whom God loves, he drops into this land

The breathtaking alpine world of the Berchtesgaden mountains exercises a magical fascination for hikers, mountaineers and nature lovers alike, with everyone certain to find their own personal corner of heaven here. But it isn’t only the mountain world that invites you to explore and enjoy. The beautiful villages and towns, the museums and spas are all well worth a visit.

In nice weather, we suggest paying a visit to the well-known Kehlsteinhaus, to the Rossfeld Scenic Road with some truly breathtaking views, as well as Königssee, with its famous echo at the foot of the mighty Watzmann. And if it happens to turn rainy, then be sure to pay a visit to the salt mine, the Watzmanntherme, or to Dokumentation Obersalzberg, which focuses on the history of Berchtesgaden during the Third Reich.
