What to expect

Home to pristine lakes and pine-clad hills buried deep in the Bavarian Alps, Berchtesgaden is one good-looking German town. Visit this mountaintop retreat for epic views across the valley plus the chance to tour of its salt mines and Hitler's hideaway, 'The Eagle's Nest'.

Start with a journey through the awe-inspiring alpine countryside, and you'll pass an assortment of chocolate-box villages and fairytale towns nestled in lush green foothills – it promises to be a day of spectacular scenery.

One of Germany's highest peaks looms large over Berchtesgaden. But it's not just Mount Watzmann that impresses here – there are spectacular sights to see beneath the surface too. Enjoy free time or avail of optional tours, including a descent into a salt mine with a boat ride on an underground lake and a visit to 'The Eagle's Nest'. Once the mountain retreat of Adolf Hitler, there's a historical tour available or a beer garden serving up cold lager and wow-factor views of the Austrian border.
