AN UNFORGETTABLE BLEND OF BEAUTY AND HISTORY
We leave the city of Salzburg, pass the Untersberg Mountain, full of legend and myth, and enter Germany by the old border crossing. Travelling through the alpine valley and passing scenic farmhouses to reach the foot of the Obersalzberg.
Continuing up the mountain to the bus terminal, we change to special coaches equipped to take us up the rest of the ascent to the brass elevator of the Eagle’s Nest.
The WWII elevator transports us to the Eagle’s Nest perched on top of the mountain. From here, we have a magnificent view of the towering snowcapped peaks of the Bavarian Alps and the surrounding countryside. It is but a short walk from here to the cross on the summit of the Obersalzberg.
A VISIT OF THE 450 YEARS OLD SALT MINES
It is inside this mountain, however, that the real adventure begins.
Donning traditional miner’s clothes, you enter the 450 year old mines by train to hear fascinating tales and facts about this underground world. There is nothing to fear as you descend into the grottos using the slides hundreds of miners have before.
KING'S LAKE
Our next destination is the King’s Lake (Königssee) nestled among the steep and imposing mountains of the Bavarian Alps.
After your stay at the lake, we head into the picturesque and charming Bavarian village of Berchtesgaden for a brief stop before returning to Salzburg.
