At the beginning, when you start walking and see the gate pillar from afar, you think you're almost there, but far from it, the stony landscape makes it really difficult, but it's always worth it

The Tor column (2588 m above sea level) is a very steep, approximately 500 meter high limestone formation on the eastern flank of the Hochkönig in the Berchtesgaden Alps.

Starting point for many climbing tours in this region, if you go to the Matrashaus you pass here on the left, if you look closely you might see a few climbers on the wall
