    At the highest point of the Kehlstein stands the summit cross, offering a 360° panoramic view of the Alps and valleys. Away from the bustling restaurant at the Eagle's Nest, you'll find peace, perfect photo opportunities, and a true summit atmosphere. A special moment that makes reaching the Kehlstein summit unforgettable.
