2025 Konigssee Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

#JulyGoodPlace2025 #Austria #Selzburg #Germany #Kingslake Austria and Germany are very suitable places for self-driving tourism. You can book a rental car and hotel from the platform first. If you want to go somewhere at night, you can choose to stay in Selzburg. If you want to enjoy the natural mountain scenery, you can choose to stay in Kingslake. It takes about 40 minutes to drive from the two main locations. It is also recommended to arrange at least two days and one night. The terrain of Selzburg is surrounded by hills. You have to go through a tunnel to enter the car. There is a horse washing field when you come out. Of course, the Selzburg Fortress is also a very recommended attraction. You have to take a cable car to enjoy the entire city view. The Makart Bridge is a love wishing bridge. Kingslake is divided into three sections. Starting from the Austrian end, taking a cruise to the end is the most basic route. The famous attraction in the middle section is St. Bartolome Church. The photos taken along the way are like a fairyland, super beautiful and dreamy. Finally, there is the part on the lake. #Cable car #Love lock #Horse washing field

The night before, stay at a hostel in Salzburg. In the morning, take the earliest bus at 06:35 (but it's recommended to check the bus schedule and familiarize yourself with the area the day before). After purchasing a single ticket, you'll arrive at Königssee in about 50 minutes. If you can force yourself to wake up early, taking the first boat to the Upper Lake area will be an absolute delight. However, keep in mind that once you enter the mountainous area, there will be no internet connection. Make sure to download maps in advance or follow the crowd. Upon reaching the Upper Lake area, enjoy a cup of milk—you'll forever cherish that taste. 😍😍😍

#5月好去处2025 Konigssee, located in the center of Berchtesgaden National Park in Germany, is a good place to visit around Munich. It is about 150km away. I drove here by myself. Travel method: cruise 🚢 + hiking 🚶 Konigssee is a long and narrow lake, 8 kilometers long, and is the cleanest lake in Germany. 🌲Travel guide: 1️⃣Buy tickets at the Konigssee pier. There are two stops: -To St. Bartholoma Church: 35 minutes, round trip for adults 22.8 euros , children half price, dogs 5 euros - to Salet: 55 minutes, round trip for adults 29 euros, children half price, dogs 5 euros Note: St. Bartholomew's Church is nicknamed the Red Onion Church. If you buy a ticket to Salet, you can get off here halfway, but I didn't 2️⃣ After getting off the boat in Salet, walk for 15 minutes to reach the upper lake Obersee. This lake is not big, but the lake surface is very calm, like a mirror 3️⃣ Another hour and a half of hiking from the upper lake will bring you to Schrainbach Wasserfall 4️⃣ The characteristics of Lake King are red trout and alpine pasture milk. The red trout restaurant is available at the pier and on the way to the upper lake 5️⃣ The toilets in Salet are free and very clean 6️⃣ There is free WIFI 7️⃣ There is less queue when you arrive at Lake King before 10:30 in the morning 8️⃣ After buying the ticket, remember to check the pier number on the ticket. The pier with the pier number is where you will queue

#5月好去处2025 Others say "You must visit King's Lake in this life", and I really experienced it! Although King's Lake is in Germany, it is actually closer to take bus 840 from Salzburg, Austria! (You can buy a one-day ticket) After arriving, you can queue up to buy a boat ticket. It is recommended to buy a round-trip ticket to the upper lake directly! (Note that the boat ride to the upper lake takes about 55 minutes, so you can go to the toilet first) Take the boat to the upper lake, and look at the magnificent mountain scenery and beautiful lake scenery along the way, accompanied by gusts of breeze, the whole heart is refreshed! It is so beautiful that it feels like being in a fairy tale! If you have physical strength, it is also recommended to continue to the waterfall, but this section is a more hiking route. You can also go to the Milk House to replenish calories!

#summervacay This time at Konigssee, I caught it on a cloudy day. The clouds and mist wrapped the lake in a delicate veil. The water stayed crystal clear, but took on a dreamy blue-green hue — like a quietly flowing painting. 🚤 As the boat reached the lake’s center, the captain performed a magical “horn echo” — blowing his trumpet toward the surrounding valleys. Moments later, the clear, ethereal echoes bounced back, as if the whole lake was responding. That moment felt unbelievably magical and so romantic. ⛪ First stop was the iconic red onion-domed St. Bartholoma Church — its bright red dome striking against the lush green mountains and clear water. 🚤 Continuing to the final stop at Salet, the deepest part of Konigssee, I found a hidden gem. A 15-minute walk from the dock led me to Obersee, a secret lake so still it mirrored the sky perfectly — the reflection was unreal. I thought a cloudy day might be disappointing, but instead, it revealed a different side of Konigssee: tranquil, mysterious, and full of stories. #GermanyTravel #Konigssee #HiddenGems #NatureMagic #TravelMoments

The scenery here in winter is like a beautiful painting. One can't help but admire the amazing workmanship of nature.

What a wonderful place. However, the weather was not good. Definitely recommend everyone to visit it at least once and their life. #travel #germany

The scenery of King's Lake is more beautiful in the morning. It will be very convenient to book the boat ticket online in advance. You can get on the boat directly and sit on the right hand side of the bow, where you can see the most beautiful front of the Red Onion Church. Remember to pay attention to the closing time of Shanghu Lake (closed in winter). If possible, it is recommended to stay one night and arrive at Lake Königssee in the morning to enjoy the changing color of the lake after noon. Beautiful. On the other hand, you can go to Hintersee, a relatively quiet and beautiful shallow lake.

That day we took a boat across Lake Königssee to reach the church. The environment along the way was quiet and the scenery was beautiful and spectacular. During the boat ride, when the captain passes the "Echo Wall" on Lake Königssee, he will play music on a trumpet or trombone, allowing passengers to listen to the echoes reverberating between the cliffs. This is a famous performance on the Lake Königssee cruise, which adds a lot of fun to the St. Bartolome Church that we are about to arrive at. San Bartolome Church is a very representative local religious and tourist landmark. The most recognizable feature is its three hemispherical red onion domes. I heard everyone call it the "Red Onion Church", so I followed suit and it feels very cute. After visiting the church and nearby scenery, we went to a local restaurant to eat "smoked trout" dishes, which were quite delicious. Being able to eat local lake fish dishes was the best experience of the trip. #MarchGoodPlaces2025

When you step into this pure land, it feels like you have fallen into a fairy tale world. The surrounding mountains are like loyal guards, protecting this clear lake. The water of Lake Königssee is so clear, like a huge blue-green crystal, sparkling with charming light in the sunlight. As you travel through the water on a cruise ship, the breeze brushes your cheeks, bringing a hint of coolness. In my ears, there is only the gentle sound of oars paddling in the water and the occasional clear bird calls, like a beautiful piece of music played by nature. In the distance, there are towering mountains with snow-capped peaks, which contrast beautifully with the azure blue sky. Any shot will be a postcard-quality film📸. On the way, the boat will also stop at St. Bartholomew's Chapel. This small red-roofed church stands quietly by the lake, surrounded by green mountains and clear waters, exuding a tranquil and sacred atmosphere. It blends perfectly with the surrounding beautiful scenery, forming a beautiful picture. It is said that the water of Lake Königssee is the cleanest water in Germany and meets the standards for drinking water. Here, time seems to slow down and all worries are thrown away. Whether you are strolling along the lake or sitting quietly on a boat admiring the scenery, you can deeply feel the magic and beauty of nature. My dears, if you also yearn for pure natural scenery, then Lake Königssee in Germany is definitely worth a visit. Believe me, the beautiful scenery here will make you linger and indulge in the embrace of nature💕.

Konigssee is located at the border of Germany and Austria, about an hour's drive from Salzburg and about a three-hour drive from Munich, Germany. You can take a boat tour of the lake, visit the famous Shallot Church, or visit the lakeside cottage at the Upper Lake, which is like a paradise. It will definitely purify your body, mind and soul, and it is guaranteed to be worth the trip!

#100 Ways to Travel This time I traveled from Austria to Croatia I decided to join King's Lake on a whim and explore Germany Visit Königssee in mid-April Although the upper lake is not open yet, nearby attractions including the ice cave and the eagle's nest are also open. But I still think it’s worth the trip! Take a boat to the church town and be surrounded by the mountains nearby The captain will also transform into a trumpet player to perform during the trip. It is very shocking to hear the trumpet sound echoing in the mountains In winter, the boats will stop in front of the Onion Church. In addition to taking photos here, you can also go up to the lake~ We walked to Schrainbach Wasserfall and then turned back. Along the way, you will pass through lush forests, gravel, and mountain roads. You can take pictures of the vast King Lake and the waterfall The round trip takes about 3 hours, except for the last 30 minutes of difficult mountain road. The rest of the time it’s a pleasant walk! #100 Ways to Travel #Germany #Kingssee #Waterfall #DopamineTravel #Europe #EuropeanSelf-Driving

"The distant places you don't know are all worth visiting paradises." Just after the beginning of autumn, I joined the "Swiss-German Hidden Gem Tour" organized by Ctrip, avoiding the scorching heat of late summer, and went to this dream paradise to enjoy more than 10 days of tranquility and coolness. I like the street corners bathed in sunlight, the shallow smiles waiting, and I also like the mountain passes where the breeze blows, the silent thoughts that arise. In the journey of life, there are busy and wasted times, but also moments of leisure and comfort, sighs and expectations of time passing. Take advantage of the good sunlight, the gentle breeze, the flowers that have not yet fully bloomed, and the ideas that have not yet bound your hands and feet. You can still walk a long, long way, and you can still express deep, deep thoughts. You can still search for those paths, mountains, and fields that once appeared in dreams. I wander in the blue sky, white clouds, clear water, sunlight, and mist, I traverse between spires, castles, red roofs, white walls, and sculptures, The beautiful scenery is so touching that it fills my heart with a very rich feeling. When that beautiful scenery unfolds before my eyes, there is no screaming, no loud exclamation, but a sense of being moved. Moved by the fact that there is such beautiful scenery in this world, moved by the charm of nature, moved by its quiet appearance and its quiet encounter with me. ❶ (Cover photo) "King's Lake" hidden in the dense forests of southeastern Germany. ❷ The most beautiful beauty, Hepburn, chose "Lake Lucerne" in Switzerland for her wedding ceremony. ❸ The green fairyland under Switzerland's "Glacier 3000". ❹ Overlooking the red-roofed houses under the "Heidelberg" King's Seat Mountain. ❺ The magical depth of Germany's "Magic Forest". ❻ Germany's "Neuschwanstein Castle": A legendary building and a poignant story. ❼ Germany's "Idstein", a colorful fairy tale town. ❽ The high mountain lake "Titisee" means Maiden Lake in German. ❾ At the foot of the Alps, Byron's "Chillon Castle" is a Swiss landmark. ❿ The elegant posture by the "Lake Geneva" in Vevey, Switzerland - a perfect place to lie down. ⓫ The old cogwheel train on "Mount Rigi" in the clouds. ⓬ The oldest clock tower in Europe is in the old town of "Bern", the capital of Switzerland. ⓭ The water column of the large fountain in "Lake Geneva" can reach up to 140 meters. ⓮ "Zurich" is the capital of the world's banking industry (home to the headquarters of 120 banks). ⓯ Various sculptures surround the headquarters of the International Olympic Committee in "Lausanne". ⓰ Switzerland's "Rhine Falls" is the most spectacular waterfall in Central Europe. ⓱ The origin of the Swiss watchmaking industry, "Schaffhausen", a town also meticulously crafted. ⓲ The "St. Gallen Abbey" in Switzerland, listed as a World Heritage Site, is magnificent. ⓳ Exploring the small town of "Memmingen" in Germany at sunset. ⓴ A corner of "Marienplatz" in Munich (also known as the city's living room). All unexpected encounters are on the road, and I love every story in the lens. Traveling through mountains and rivers, the world is worth it.

Lake Königssee is located on the border between Germany and Austria in southeastern Germany. It was surrounded by the Alps and turned into a lake after the end of the last ice age. It is now the clearest, deepest and most famous lake in Germany. The most classic way to play is to take a cruise on Lake Königssee to enjoy the scenery of the lake and mountains. You can hike in the summer. The clear emerald green lake water is even drinkable. . Lake Königssee is divided into the upper lake area and the lower lake area. The scenery of the upper lake area is particularly magnificent. The opening hours are usually from the end of April to mid-October (please confirm on the official website). When approaching the church, the captain will blow the horn, and you can hear the echo of the horn coming back from the mountain wall. 🌟 Some small tips 1. A round trip on Lake Königssee takes about 1.5-3 hours (depending on whether you go to the upper lake area) 2. Choose a seat on the King's Lake cruise ship that goes right and turns left so that you can easily see the red church 3. The roads in the German and Austrian countryside are flat and wide, and the road signs are clear. It is highly recommended to drive by yourself and visit the surrounding attractions. 🌟 Nearby attractions: 1. The Eagle’s Nest (Kehlsteinhaus): Hitler’s villa overlooking Lake Königssee, closed in winter 2. #RamsauChurch: Entrance to the hiking trail leading to Lake Königssee, Magic Forest and Lake Hintersee 3. #MagicForest (Zauberwald): Lush greenery and gurgling water make this a popular walking spot near Lake Königssee 4. #SaltMineBerchtesgaden: One of the three oldest salt mines in Europe #Germany #King's Lake #MM plays in Germany #WinHongKongTickets Come to Hong Kong's paradise on earth, Sai Kung District!
