A 200 m-long gorge.
The deepest lake in the Alps, surrounded by very steep mountain that raise up 2,000 m above the lake level. You can make a boat trip to the other side of the lake to visit the world famous Kloster St. Bartolomä, the smaller lake Obersee and enjoy the wildlife of the national park. Hiking is very popular in summer and tours around the lake are sign posted. Routes are prepared by the "Deutsche Alpenverein" and they indicate usually how long it takes to get to your destination, and how difficult they are. One of the possible targets is the Landtalbach waterfall, in a valley above Obersee.
This is where was filmed the final scene of the classic The Sound Of Music movie, a very beautiful spot for skiing, or walks in the sunshine and above the clouds. There are several restaurants that offer local food at reasonable pricing and you can rest there and take a bath in the sun on chairs that are provided on a rental bases. The Rossfeld can be reached via a toll road or by bus. The toll road is very well maintained and free of snow and ice all around the year.
It is the second, smaller cable car in Berchtesgaden and will bring you onto the Obersalzberg but not upon its top. The upper station you can enjoy a summer bob sledding run.
