Bavarian Mountains and Obersalzberg Tour from Salzburg

Description:

• This afternoon tour from Salzburg takes you high into the picturesque Bavarian Alps above the Obersalzberg. Enjoy magnificent views across the snowcapped mountain peaks and historic sights such as Castle Hellbrunn on your way to the German border and the former mountain residence of Hitler, Eagle's Nest.

  Driving along the Konigseeache, through the lovely valley and picturesque farmland to Unterau you will begin to ascend to the Obersalzberg. Here, the tour will stop to see what is left of Hitler's mountain compound, and to enjoy the wonderful panorama (view of Hitler's Eagle's Nest).

  Next you continue down the Konigsee, or Echo Lake, nestled among the steep mountain peaks. There will be time for a stroll along the lake.

  On the return journey back to Salzburg, the coach will stop in Berchtesgaden for a walk around the village and some refreshments (not included).
