The Location
The Kehlsteinhaus and the nearby town of Berchtesgaden are both located in the Berchtesgadener Land, located in the south-eastern corner of the Free State of Bavaria (Bayern).
Being less than twenty-five kilometres by road from the historic Austrian city of Salzburg and one hundred and fifty kilometres - less than a three hour drive - from the Bavarian capital of Munich (München), it is more than feasible to visit the Kehlsteinhaus as part of a day trip. Before planning your journey however, it should be noted that the Kehlsteinhaus itself is only open to the public during the summer months, specifically, from May through to October.
Please note that these are basic guidelines and that the latest visitor information should be obtained from the official www.eagles-nest.de website (German language only).
