Description
Discover the natural beauty of Berchtesgaden on a day trip from Munich—explore the Zauberwald, enjoy a scenic lake cruise on Königssee, and visit the iconic St. Bartholomew’s Church.
Depart from Munich in the morning and head towards the enchanting [Zauberwald] (Magic Forest). On the way, pass through the charming town of Ramsau and continue to [Hintersee], one of the three lakes connected to [Königssee]. Nestled beside the lake is the peaceful [Zauberwald], where you’ll have the chance to enjoy a scenic 30-minute hike through the forest, experiencing the beauty of [Berchtesgaden National Park].
After lunch, arrive at [Königssee] and take the boat ride. Königssee is a stunning glacial lake nestled in the Bavarian Alps, known for its crystal-clear emerald waters and dramatic fjord-like cliffs. A boat ride across the lake offers peaceful alpine views, with a stop at the iconic St. Bartholomew’s Church, famous for its red onion domes. Surrounded by the Berchtesgaden National Park, Königssee is one of Germany’s most beautiful natural sights—a perfect blend of tranquility and grandeur.
***In winter, if the cruise ship does not operate, we will refund the cruise ticket fees (€22.80/adult, €11.40/child aged 6–17, free for children under 6). You can take the cable car to the top of [JennerBahn] at your own expense instead. At an altitude of 1874 meters, the view of the [Königssee] from the top is an excellent perspective, and you can also see the entire Berchtesgaden.
(If the ticket of Königssee boat is in the morning, you will start with a leisurely boat trip to Königssee, then after lunch, proceed to Hintersee and the Zauberwald).
