Fuschlsee-Blick

Source: The Salzburg Legend Book - Josef Brettenthaler, Matthias Laireiter - Verlag der Salzburger Druckerei, 1976, p. 73 The legend surrounding the Mittagsscharte refers to a time portal (cave portal) that is said to open there every few years on the Assumption of Mary (August 15th). In fact, there is a cave called the Steinerner Kaser in the middle of the Mittagsscharte, where a light phenomenon can be observed at 2 p.m. on August 15th and June 21st. A so-called day vent illuminates the cave at midday. This light spectacle becomes even more impressive when the sun and clouds alternate, and you can experience a pulsing sensation inside the cave. Unfortunately, we were only there on June 28th and were unable to witness this spectacle.

Good footwear Take enough to drink with you Sure-footedness required

Small entry, adults need to crawl. But it’s worth it.

The entrance to the Eagle Cave is very difficult to find and you have to crawl in on all fours. I have met a few people in front of the cave who didn't think they could do it. The view from the wall of the cave over the Eisenau, the Attersee and the Höllengebirge is fantastic, but no different than directly from the Schafberg. The cave itself is what makes the experience special.

Descent Lidaun

Fantastic view over the Salzkammergut!

It is located between the Salzburger Hochthron (1,853 m above sea level) in the north and the Raucheck (1,891 m above sea level) in the south at an altitude of 1,671 m above sea level. A. right on the border between Austria and Germany. Crossing the Untersberg from the Berchtesgadener to the Salzburger Hochthron is one of the most beautiful tours in the Berchtesgaden Alps. The varied path leads over the extensive high plateau with its huge sinkholes - an extraordinary landscape that is second to none.
