About this experience

This day trip involves traveling from Munich to Berchtesgaden, where participants will experience the mountain scenery and landscape of Berchtesgadener Land. A special bus and lift transport the group to Eagle's Nest, located at an altitude of 1,834m, providing views of the surrounding area. A guide will share historical insights and answer questions during the visit. The itinerary includes a brief stop in the town of Berchtesgaden. The return trip features views along the German alpine road, showcasing Bavaria's valleys. If weather conditions such as fog, ice, or snow prevent access to Eagle's Nest, the visit will be extended at the documentation center and in Berchtesgaden.
