The Watzmann itself, the second-highest mountain in Germany, is entwined with one of the best-known legends of the Alpine region: a tyrannical king is said to have been turned to stone, together with his wife and children, as punishment for his cruelty, and in the peaks of the massif people believed they could recognise the petrified family.<\/p>\n The whole area lies in the heart of the Berchtesgaden National Park, the only Alpine national park in Germany, in which golden eagles, chamois and marmots have a home. For centuries salt mining shaped the fate of the region and secured the prosperity of the prince-provostry of Berchtesgaden, before tourism discovered the mountains. Deep down on the shore of the K\u00f6nigssee lies the famous pilgrimage church of St. Bartholom\u00e4 with its red onion domes, once accessible only by water and to this day a symbol of this secluded mountain world. A cableway now leads up to the summit area of the Jenner and makes the great panorama accessible to anyone who wishes to experience the silent power of the K\u00f6nigssee and its mountain backdrop from above, there where the sheer walls rise almost without transition from the dark water.<\/p>\n To make your trip run smoothly , our guides and gear tips for this destination:<\/p>\n Der Jenner (1.874 m) ist ein bekannter Aussichtsberg direkt am K\u00f6nigssee.
