Visit the Nazi Party’s historic conference venue high up on the summit of Kehlstein Mountain, by embarking on an Eagle’s Nest tour from Salzburg! Take in the incredible views of the Bavarian and Austrian Alps from 5,000 ft.
Your journey from Salzburg will take you through the scenic alpine landscape of the Koenigssee Valley, crossing into Germany past an ancient castle and old mountainous farmhouses.
Explore the quaint towns of Obersalzberg and Berchtesgaden, near to the destroyed site of Adolf Hitler’s house and legendary Birches Garden. Berchtesgaden has deemed itself the nickname Hitler's Eagle's Nest, given its association with Hilter and Nazi history.
Be treated to a perilously steep drive to reach the entry tunnel, ride the old brass elevator and experience the main attraction in Berchtesgaden, Eagle’s Nest’s interior. A professional guide will lead you to all the important sites, such as the famous fireplace, and the meeting room.
This is truly a tour not to be missed for history and nature lovers!
Taking one of these tours is the easiest way to visit the beautiful Bavarian Alps without a car as they provide direct transfers from Salzburg. Unfortunately, Eagle's Nest is only open for half the year as it closes for the winter months.
