    Tips

    Lake Königssee is a mountain lake located mostly within the Berchtesgaden National Park.

    Nestled between the steep slopes of the Watzmann and Hagen Mountains, the elongated lake, together with the smaller Obersee to the southeast—around which the Steinernes Meer mountain range forms the head of the valley—has a fjord-like character.

    From the Königssee parking area, a path leads past picturesque boathouses into the national park. Passing the former Café Malerwinkl, the walk continues to the so-called Malerwinkel (Painter's Corner). This hike is also very popular as a winter walk, when the path to Malerwinkl is cleared and gritted.
