Contact & Meeting Location
The location for our Private Eagle’s Nest Historical Tour is up on Obersalzberg on the street entrance (not the parking lot entrance) of the building marked Berggasthof Obersalzberg (which is a restaurant). The building is located at the end of Parking 1 at Obersalzberg (4 km up the mountain from Berchtesgaden, Germany). Normally there is parking available at nearby P1, P2 and P3. As a reference point, P1 (where our office is located) is the parking lot closest to the Eagle’s Nest bus departure point (Kehlstein Busabfahrt in German).
If you are staying in Salzburg (Austria) and don’t have a vehicle you can take bus #840 which departs almost every hour from either the Salzburg train station or from Mirabellplatz for Berchtesgaden train/bus station (duration approx. 45 min.). From Munich there are regular train departures about every hour for Berchtesgaden train/bus station (change at Freilassing). The one-way trip takes about 2.5 – 3 hrs. From the Berchtesgaden bus station you can take bus #838 to Obersalzberg where our tour departs from. There is also the option of taking a taxi from the train station in Berchtesgaden to Obersalzberg. If asking for directions, don’t let people send you up to the “Eagle’s Nest” (Kehlsteinhaus). If you are arriving in Berchtesgaden by bus or train the meeting point can be in front of the train /bus station.
Please arrive at least 15 min. prior to tour departure!!!
