  • AV Weg 497 (Hinterbrand - Seeleinsee)

    8.2 km · +881 m

  • Malerwinkelrundweg

    3.1 km · +239 m

    The loop passes picturesque boathouses along the shore of the Königssee, one of the most beautiful mountain lakes in the Alps, before reaching the Malerwinkel viewpoint — a panorama highlight within Berchtesgaden National Park. A detour continues up to the Rabenwand, a loftier vantage point particularly sought out by photographers, though it demands a degree of sure-footedness.

  • AV Weg 494 (Kessel - Gotzentalalm)

    4.7 km · +602 m

  • AV Weg 493 (Königssee - Gotzenalm - Landtal)

    13.6 km · +1467 m

  • AV Weg 457 Alpeltalsteig

    5.6 km · +1491 m

  • Kehlstein - Hoher Göl über Mannlgrat

    3.1 km · +796 m

    The route climbs from the Kehlsteinhaus — the 1938 "Eagle's Nest" perched above Obersalzberg — up through the airy Mannlgrat via a via ferrata that is often underestimated, before reaching the 2,522 m summit of Hoher Göll. In this high-alpine terrain, progress is slow, and the Hohe Brett appears deceptively close from the ridge.

  • AV Weg 443 (Königssee - Kühroint - Rinkendlsteig - St. Bartolomä)

    10.6 km · +1684 m

  • Rinnkendlsteig

    3.3 km · +868 m

    A point-to-point route through Berchtesgaden National Park linking St. Bartholomä and Königssee, the Rinnkendlsteig demands sure-footedness and a head for heights at every step. Fixed safety equipment is in place along the way, signalling terrain that earns its hard rating.

  • AV Weg 442

    9.3 km · +1611 m

    Wimbachbrücke - Schapbach - Kühroint - Watzmannhaus

  • Arnoweg

    717.2 km · +56569 m

    Der Arnoweg ist ein Weit- und Rundwanderweg und umrundet das Bundesland Salzburg. Start- und Zielpunkt ist die Festung Hohensalzburg in Salzburg, Österreich. In seiner längstmöglichen Variante ist er 1.200 Kilometer lang.
