Berchtesgadener land

Festivals of nature

One of Europe"s most beautiful landscapes is waiting for you.

Kings, artists, sportsmen and guests from all over the world were fascinated by its unique sights and the distinctive landmark Watzmann, the third largest mountain in Germany with a height of 2714 meters. The Rupertiwinkel, Upper Bavaria"s homey corner - a holiday country in front of the mounatins, offers many opportunities for recreation and relaxation. 

The varied landscape is fascinating and the silence of nature is soothing. The people are of an ingenuous and buoyant temper and fond of company. Love of one"s native country is proverbial here. 

Customs and traditions are very important in Bavaria"s social life. Customs and practice passed on by generations have not forfeited their poularity. This is shown by many events.

Location: The district of Berchtesgadener land is the southeasternmost part of Bavaria and it is located only 20 kilometers away from Mozart City Salzburg in the German - Austrian border region.
