48 Hours in the German Alps: Best of Berchtesgaden

❤️ YOOOO! Nice video!!! I’m a Small Struggling Travel Channel and you really inspire me to make better content 😌 Thank you! 🙏🏻

Radler in english Shandy

Hello from France
All you have to do is visit the French Alps. a nice place in these mountains is Annecy and its lake whose water is the cleanest in Europe

Thanks for another wonderful German vlog. German alps is now in our bucket list!

Hi, that´s near my home. I really like the mountains, views, hiking, nature. Nice video.
Beer and soda = Radler. Refreshing, a little bit sweet. The perfect drink after a hike.
Btw: Some people ;-) think electric boats sink because the batteries are too heavy. They should come to Berchtesgaden, Königssee where all boats are powered by batteries. And this since more than 100 years now!!! (Indeed: NO, I really don´t want THIS special person to come here)

Thanks again for another great, beautiful and magnificent views of the alps, mountains, waterfalls, rivers and more. It’s so relaxing and serene, I loved it. Plus the background music is perfect. You guys are the Best👏👏

Your videos are very well made and clearly done with care. Beautiful panoramas, tasteful background music, good food reviews, and genuinely nice people on camera leading the audience through your travels.

This small yellow fruit is lychee, a fruit from Japan!

Thank you for continuing to share youor marvelous journey with us. It is satisfying to see the two of you grow along with your ever growing adventure and exploration of the planet.

Thanks for the views!! You guys rock!! :)

Gahh this made us want to return to Germany so badly! We weren't able to make it to this part of the Alps and it looks STUNNING!

your videos are probably one of the most wholesome things on this platform, can''t wait for the next video

Such a beautiful trip! It makes me want to escape to the mountains. I think the little fruit you keep finding with dessert is a ground cherry or physalis.

There several beers here in the States that are mixed with lemonade. Pretty refreshing...

Radler is pretty common in Germany, a lot of the kiosks sell them…
The Eagles Nest is highly recommended, not just for the history, but the view is absolutely breathtaking.
The huts you spoke about, around this time of the year are perfect, particularly Wasseralm and Gotzenalm.
Thoroughly enjoying your videos in Germany, as a German, currently aboard ❤❤

Now THIS is right my alley! I think I’m gonna wait till you revisit the Dolomites and maybe offer a group trip there! I’m definitely in love with that region. The German alps are incredible!!! Thanks for this!

Just a wee note that the Eagles Nest was not Hitler’s holiday home. It was merely built at a time when the Nazis were commissioning several buildings across Berchtesgaden. This was all centred around the Berghof- Hitler’s holiday home, which was demolished shortly after the war ended. However, Hitler is documented to have visited Eagles Nest, and it was used to host government meetings. The novel ‘Prussian Blue’ by Philip Kerr offers a fascinating look at the mass construction around Berchtesgaden in the late 1930s, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone interested in the location or the history!

So pretty! And beer with soda or lemonade are Shandy’s. Can buy at some bars in US or in cans. Or make your own!😊

Hey guys lovely videos are you able to share your hiking routes as well?

Aren't you guys having real jobs to do? Seemed you guys are always traveling and entertaining. What a life!?

Love when I see a new upload from you guys especially this series! I love the alps too (only been to Switzerland but will visit Austria alps next year) but the alps in Bavaria…whoa. I think I ought to visit in the future! Ok back to your vidoe 😂🎉

Hi there! I just discovered this channel and I’m glad I did because I love to travel and watch others travel as well. I feel as if I’m there with you guys! I highly recommend visiting Kosovo it’s a country in the Balkans with great diverse cuisine, incredible hiking opportunities and quaint mountain towns. Definitely check out Prizren which is the second most populous city in Kosovo there’s a fortress that dates back to the 6th century and the fortress overlooks the entire city. It’s absolutely beautiful once you get up there. My family is from there too. Cheers! 🍻

You guys ROCK! Thank you very much! I can't wait to see more.

If you like the Radler, or shandy, as the English say, get a snakebite, which is half beer, half cider. Bty, can you even still ride a bike and drink in Germany. In Austria that's now illegal, so no Radlers there, I guess.

A chad and Claire video was just what I needed to wind down and relax! Looks like you both had a wonderful time. Take care!

One thing about German food...it's made to sate your hunger and fill your stomach...and it does that completely. Being part German (this is Wisconsin), most of us grew up on these fine, filling foods..and still enjoy today. Germany is really a beautiful country and hikers' paradise. Keep enjoying your travels! 🎉

Berchtesgaden, a hidden gem of Germany the same way Mount Rushmore is a hidden gem of the USA :D

There ARE people in the US that drink Radlers. Me, ich, I drink Radlers and I am “totally” not German at all 😂

Wow, gorgeous!!!! I always "save" your videos, for my husband and I to watch together. Just curious, how many countries in are you, toward your goal of 50 countries?

i see you had great days here. greets from germany

May is indeed a great time of year to visit the region even though not everything's open for the season yet. All the fresh green, only a fraction of the summer crowds around...

Many Americans have heard of so-called "Eagles Nest" and believe that it was Hitler's hiding place or vacation home. Neither is true. Kehlsteinhaus (that's the real name of the place) was just a tea house built NEAR Obersalzberg, a complex of buildings on a mountain that served as official second seat of Hitler's government. It all got torn down after the war, but you can still see some of the old tunnels and bunkers in the Obersalzberg Documentation Center. Shouldn't go to Eagles Nest and miss the doc center if you are interested in the history of the place. It is right by the parking lot where the buses to Kehlsteinhaus leave from. Now, Hitler actually hated that tea house, not the least, it is said, because he was claustrophobic and scared of the elevator - which is still in use today to reach the restaurant. So the Hitler visited the place maybe a handful of times. Nothing significant ever happened there and it is kinda funny that people from all over the world flock to it because of the assumed connection with the evil dictator.

Btw: When a meadow carries a lot of yellow buttercup and dandelian it is a safe sign of over-fertilization. You can tell that those meadows in Bavaria are used by grazing cows in the summer. In the fall they get sprayed with dung - definitely not a place where you want to picknick. Look for meadows with mixed flowers, those are the ecologicaly healthy wild flower meadows. And the yellow fields you see from the plane are canola. They are all over Germany, mostly for producing biofuel.

An alternative to a 'Radler, a Bavarian 'Helles' mixed with lemon soda, could be a wheat beer mixed with lemon soda. It's called a 'Russe' (Russian). Furthermore you also can ask for a 'Cola Weiße'. It's wheat beer mixed with coke.

I am hungry!!!!!!!! Don t show this delicious looking food!!!!!! You are soo mean!! I envy you!!!

so obviously you ignored the drone prohibition rules of the Berchtesgarden National Park....

Another great place to visit in Berchtesgaden is the Salt mine just outside the town.

What a nice couple and a very beautiful landscape. It's a pleasure for me (as a german) to see how much you both enjoy your vacation. Please, send more videos

My husband and I are going here in early October and I was literally kicking my feet with excitement watching this.

Too bad the Eagle's nest was closed. If you ever do go back you should take the salt mine tour. Interesting and not very expensive.

Looks so beautiful...and would never visit Eagles Nest anyway. I just can't understand after what genocidal Hitler did to Germany and the world WHY anyone would want to step foot in a place where Hitler "vacationed." I can't believe Germany hasn't torn it down. Glad it wasn't in this video!

I really enjoy your videos!

Nice view from your small apartement. Directly onto the Watzmann

The endless fields of yellow might also be the canola fields. if they're relatively tightly packed and less like that small field by the church, then thats a canola field.

The yellow "wild flower" surely is: Raps / rapeseed . It is cultivated for oil production 🏵🏵🏵

My friend took me here in April. It was the highlight of my Europe trip as I had dreamt of visiting BGD since 2021. Absolutely no regrets visiting there.

@ChadandClaire

It will be my first time traveling to Europe with my wife and I’m planning a two-day trip from Munich to Berchtesgaden before heading to Salzburg. Did you drive from Munich? It seems like visiting those places would be much easier with a car rather than using public transport. What do you think?
