Our hiking tip for your vacation
A beautiful hike through the alpine pastures down to Königssee. From the Explorer Hotel Berchtesgaden, the mountain tour first goes to the Königssee parking lot.
You hike past the Jennerbahn valley station and continue to the Hochbahnweg trail. On some sections of the trail, you'll have a beautiful view down to Königssee.
The trail eventually takes you to the Königsbachalm. Continue to the Gotzentalalm via a fairly wide forest path. Once you reach the Gotzentalalm, follow the Kesselsteig trail down to Königssee.
Caution: The trail leads over the partly steep and densely overgrown shoreline of Lake Königssee until you finally reach the Kessel on-demand stop.
How about a boat trip on Lake Königssee afterward? But be careful: The Kessel landing stage is a on-demand stop. Hikers who want to start a boat tour from there must first attract the attention of the boatmen by turning over a sign at a hut.
