Watzmann massif crossing
Behind the King of the Berchtesgaden Alps
The ghostly Watzmann, a gloomy mountain hovering over Berchtesgaden. The daring ridge leads over three rock peaks and ends at the third highest and at the same time most beautiful peak of the German Alps. In good weather, it is a completely unique experience, great views of the sharp ridge, the Alps and the blue lake Königsee deep down between the rocks. The ridge via ferrata achieves only the demands of A / B and B, but its considerable length and guidance directly along a narrow rocky and airy ridge makes it a literally royal hike, worthy of respect. continue reading

Lake Seebensee is relatively attractive for tourists and easily accessible. The advantage is many variants of how to get to the lake and the possibility to combine a trip with a secured path with maximum difficulty level E.
