Visit the historic Obersalzberg area, including the former Berghof site. Once a major center of power during the Nazi era, it provides insight into a significant period of history in a striking alpine setting.
Kehlsteinhaus

one hour Admission included

From the Obersalzberg you will access the Eagle's Nest with special busses and elevator. You will have 45 minutes at the Eagle's Nest. Take a stroll to the very close summit Kehlstein to overlook the picturesque Bavarian and Austrian Alps.

From November 1st until about May 10th (depends on the snow conditions of the year), the Eagle's Nest direct access road is closed, alternatively, we offer to visit the Rossfeld summit instead. From this vantage point, soak in panoramic views of the stunning Austrian and Bavarian Alps and the nearby Eagle's Nest. Feel free to choose this option also when Eagle's Nest is opened if you prefer a much less crowded, more local site than the Eagle's Nest.
