HIKING AROUND THE JENNER
Dear guests,
The hiking area around the Jenner is one of the most varied hiking areas in Berchtesgaden. Take the Jennerbahn cable car up to 1,200 or 1,800 m in comfort and start your hike from there to nearby alpine pastures and huts, to the surrounding mountain peaks or start or end your multi-day tour on the Jenner. The same for all hikers and connoisseurs: the fantastic view of the mountains with views of the Watzmann and Königssee.
Please note…
The hikes around the Jenner are in alpine terrain. Sturdy and safe footwear, appropriate hiking equipment and a detailed hiking map are an advantage. You can hire hiking equipment from Sport Renoth at the Jennerbahn valley station. Hiking maps are available from the Jenner store at the mountain station.
Our tip for the summit experience:
Hiking trail from the mountain station to the Königsblick – the view of the Königssee and the surrounding peaks is truly majestic. Hikers who are sure-footed and suitably equipped can reach the Jenner summit cross in alpine terrain in around 20 minutes from the mountain station.
Please note: The paths are not cleared winter hiking trails, you are out and about in open terrain at your own risk. Snowshoes (available for hire from Sport Renoth at the valley station) or spiked shoes provide more safety.
The panoramic image provides an overview, but does not replace a detailed hiking map!
