Originally we wanted to follow the flyer published by the Berchtesgaden tourist office, but then we got hungry after 3/4 of the way.

So we took a shortcut towards the center via the Aussegnungsweg.

Nevertheless, a nice little round with a great view of Berchtesgaden from the Soleleitungsweg and, on a clear day, of the Watzmann massif.

Easy and beautiful circular hike in and around Berchtesgaden. The Soleletungsweg, above the town, offers particularly great views. Unfortunately, visibility was limited by low-hanging clouds and the surrounding mountains were not visible.
