Panorama ascent to the top of the Jenner in the Berchtesgaden National Park, Bavaria. The route starts at the Hinterbrand parking lot (subject to a fee) and initially leads fairly flat along the Königsweg to the Wasserfallalm. The route is somewhat steeper up to the seasonally managed Mitterkaseralm (note opening times) through shady mixed forests and fragrant alpine meadows. The last section leads via the Jenneralm at the mountain station up to the panoramic summit with sweeping views over...

Scenic loop in the Berchtesgaden National Park, Bavaria. This wonderful loop through the idyllic mountains of the Berchtesgaden National Park starts at the middle station of the Jennerbahn. After the ascent from Königssee (subject to a charge, see tips), the route follows quite steeply uphill the Königsweg past the wasserfallalm and the Strubalm. The last stretch to the summit of the Jenner is via the Blitzweg in numerous serpentines up steeply to the mountain station of the Jennerbahn. At...

Demanding hike to the Kleiner Jenner via Laxersteig. The Laxersteig is a challenging, highly exposed via ferrata that requires climbing experience and a complete via ferrata set and helmet. This route, which is rated C/D in the most difficult passages, is the tough complement to the easier Schützensteig and is not suitable for beginners. The climb features strenuous, steep and exposed passages over smooth rock and leads to the summit of the Kleiner Jenner (1,694 m / 5,558 ft) with fantastic...

Very worthwhile via ferrata in the Berchtesgaden National Park, Bavaria. The Schützensteig was specially designed for families and beginners. It can be reached on foot from the Hinterbrand car park or, more conveniently and quickly, from the Jenner mountain station in around 15 minutes. The Schützensteig leads to the summit of the Kleiner Jenner (Vogelstein) and offers a great view of the surrounding mountains and the Königssee. Danger! A head for heights, sure-footedness and good physical...

Family-friendly hike from the top station of the Jennerbahn, Bavaria. This rather short round leads from the Jenner mountain station via the Mitterkaseralm to the Carl von Stahl house. You can take the Jennerbahn to the starting point (note the timetable and prices). From there it's a leisurely hike to the seasonally managed Mitterkaseralm with a detour to the Vogelstein vantage point. Shortly thereafter, it goes slightly and steadily uphill until you turn sharp right just before the...
