Berchtesgaden

The charming town of Berchtesgaden in Upper Bavaria, amid the peaks of the Salzburg Alps, is an idyllic place. This is probably why it was here that Adolf Hitler, who had his residence in the town, used to come here for over 10 years. Today Berchtesgaden is a summer and winter sports center. It is at the heart of the Berchtesgaden National Park , with 260 km of hiking trails, numerous climbing routes and paragliding take-offs.
