why berchtesgaden?
Unmatched Beauty
Berchtesgaden National Park is renowned for being one of the most beautiful alpine regions in the world. From the turquoise waters of Lake Königssee to the rugged landscape of the Steinerne Meer, every corner unveils a new scene of unparalleled natural beauty.
Make New Friends
Our adventures are all about bringing women together! The kind of trip where you show up as strangers and end up sharing laughs, trail snacks, and stories like old friends. You’ll push yourself, try new things, and feel supported every step of the way, all within a warm, inclusive group that makes the outdoors feel even more special.
Alpine Adventure
This is a multi-day hiking adventure that’s perfect if you’re ready to step up your hiking without getting too technical. It’s challenging in all the right ways but totally doable and a great way to get a real taste of longer trekking days in some truly stunning scenery.
Authentic Charm
In Berchtesgaden, the wild alpine scenery blends with everyday mountain life. One moment you’re walking past turquoise lakes and echoing cowbells, and the next you’re in a cozy hut sharing hearty Bavarian food with locals. It’s a place where the landscape, the flavours, and the people all come together, and you feel it with every step.
Itinerary
Day One
Carl-von-Stahl Haus (1728 m). After arriving in Munich we will take our transfer to Hinterbrand (1062 m) where we start our hike. From here, the trail begins gently, winding across lush alpine meadows framed by forested slopes and distant limestone peaks. The trail leads us via Mitterkaseralm, an inviting spot for late lunch. In good weather we can extend the route with a detour to the Pfaffenkogel, a rocky summit where the final meters are secured by chains and require a short scramble, our first taste of true alpine flair. If conditions are less favourable, there is a wide forest road directly to Carl-von-Stahl Haus.
Day Stats
Distance: 5 km | Elevation Gain: 700 m | Descent: 150m
Moving Time: 3 hours | Total Day Duration: 4 hours
Day Two
Gotzenalm (1685 m). The Schneibstein route climbs steadily from the hut to the broad summit plateau, where sweeping panoramas open up over the Berchtesgaden Alps. With a bit of luck, we may find ibex grazing along the rocky ridges. From the summit, the path descends across open karst terrain, mountain meadows, and past a lake to swim in, before meeting the approach to the Gotzenalm.
Day Stats
Distance: 12 km | Elevation Gain: 900 m | Descent: 950m
Moving Time: 5.5 hours | Total Day Duration: 8-9 hours
Day Three
Wasseralm (1416 m). After leaving the lush pastures of the Gotzenalm, the trail narrows into a small mountain path with a short, slightly exposed section secured by ropes. Here a steady step and a head for heights are helpful, but since the stretch is brief, we can take it calmly and safely before descending into the secluded valley of the Wasseralm.
Day Stats
Distance: 10km | Elevation Gain: 500m | Descent: 750m
Moving Time: 4 hours | Total Day Duration: 6-7 hours
Day Four
Ingolstadter (2132 m). This route climbs steeply out of the valley, winding over rocky steps and narrow switchbacks before reaching the Totes Weibl pass. Beyond the saddle, the trail enters the edge of the Steinerne Meer (literally means “Stone Sea”) a vast high-alpine plateau formed from ancient limestone that was once the floor of a prehistoric ocean. Its rugged, wave-like karst formations create a striking, almost lunar landscape. The path threads through this rough, stony terrain and across a few short, exposed sections before descending on a steeper, uneven trail that eventually leads down toward the tranquil Funtensee.
Day Stats
Distance: 10km | Elevation Gain: 1000m | Descent: 800m
Moving Time: 5 hours | Total Day Duration: 8-9 hours
Day Five
Purzlbach. We’ll wake up at Ingolstädter Haus and set out on our final hike, following beautiful alpine trails as we make our way to Purzlbach. This last stretch offers a chance to soak up the mountain scenery one final time before descending and meeting our transfer back to Munich Airport, where you can either catch your flight home or stay on to explore more of the city.
Day Stats
Distance: 11km | Elevation Gain: 50m | Descent: 1100m
Moving Time: 3.5 hours | Total Day Duration: 5 hours
