Berchtesgaden National Park

Listen to the voices of birds, track down gentian and edelweiss or marvel at marmots and golden eagles: the national park administration offers hikes on various themes throughout the year. The programme includes excursions, group outings and experiences for the whole family.

A picturesque view of snow-capped mountains and a deep blue lake, surrounded by wooded hills and green meadows under a clear blue sky - one of the most beautiful excursion destinations, with winding roads and scattered trees in the foreground. - Stoll's Hotel Alpina

Königssee and St. Bartholomä

Surrounded by mighty rock faces, it rests in one of the most impressive landscapes in Germany - emerald green and tranquil - in the centre of the Berchtesgaden National Park. The fjord-like lake is eight kilometres long, up to 1.2 kilometres wide and lies 602 metres above sea level. With a maximum depth of 192 metres, the water of Lake Königssee remains relatively cold even in midsummer.

A picturesque lake surrounded by mountains with a boat carrying passengers and a building with red domes and white walls on the shore under a bright blue sky - one of the region's must-see destinations. - Stoll's Hotel Alpina

On an excursion through the history of the earth, you will receive exciting information that you will not only learn about during the salt journey through time, but will also experience with all your senses thanks to effective stagings in the realm of fantasy.

Kehlsteinhaus - Eagle's Nest

A historic vantage point high above the Berchtesgadener Land: from the Eagle's Nest, visitors can enjoy an overwhelming panoramic view of up to 200 kilometres. It has been managed by the Berchtesgaden-Königssee tourist region since 1960 and is run by private tenants as a mountain restaurant.

Salzburg - Salzburger Land

From Stoll's Hotel Alpina, you can drive to Salzburg, the world-famous festival city, in about 25 minutes. Here you have the opportunity to get to know the small but beautiful Mozart city of Salzburg with its many elegant shops, squares, churches and castles. Here you will also find a number of museums worth visiting, for example the newly built Museum der Moderne on the Mönchsberg or the Haus der Natur, which also appeals to younger guests.
Not much further away on the Austrian side you will find some beautifully situated, romantic lakes, such as the Mondsee, Wallersee or Fuschlsee. All of these places can be easily reached within a day, for example with our bus operator friend Schwaiger, who not only organises day trips there, so you can leave your car in the garage and relax.
