Königssee + Obersee 🇩🇪 A Magical Day Trip in the Bavarian Alps + Kaiserschmarrn!
Рет қаралды 49,515
2 жыл бұрынWe took our four kids on a day trip to see the MAGICAL Königssee and Obersee lakes in Berchtesgaden National Park, and we were blown away! It is a breathtaking place and is definitely a must-see in Germany (Deutschland). We're so happy we were able to show our children more of the beauty in Germany, and only a 45-minute drive away. We got to eat at a restaurant for the first time since we moved to Germany and were able to try Kaiserschmarrn for the first time! We hope you enjoy seeing how our family experienced this special park. We plan to go back to hike and stay overnight, too.

We are a family of six, with four kids and a cat 😹, who moved from the USA to Germany in February of 2021 to pursue our dreams of adventure, travel, learning another language, and integrating into German life. We hope you enjoy our videos about our journey to integrate - the highs and the lows of being foreigners on the adventure of a lifetime.

Also you should visit Bremen, Hamburg, Berlin and Dresden.

Your son's German is so good! Sounds perfect. Kaiserschmarrn is fairly easy to make at home, you should give it a try! Only need to be patient so it doesn't burn in the pan ;D If your kids enjoy being in nature, for a future trip you could go to a "Barfußpfad", a barefoot trail (?), don't know if that's a thing in the US but I think they are quite common in Germany. I went to some when I was in elementary school to learn about the different materials and textures of the forest. They usually are not only for entertainment but also for education :)

Königssee has been and will always be my most favorite place in the world, ever since my very first visit over 20 years ago. It's wonderful that you all spent the time to hike all the way back to Obersee. Eventually when your kids have more energy, and path is open, you could actually walk to the alm across Obersee and get fresh churned butter on bread. Lovely stuff.

Nice, looks like you had a great "Vormittag" at the Königssee. You've probably already heard of it, but Berchtesgaden made me think of the salt mine they have close to there. It's actually a working salt mine and the Bad Reichenhall salt comes from there. There is a part of it you can tour and you go into the mountain on a little train like the miners used at one point and within you go down a couple of wooden slides and even cross a lake within the caves on some floats. Plus you learn about salt mining. It's actually pretty cool and I'm sure the kids would enjoy it. If you just google Salzbergwerk Berchtesgaden, it should just pop up 😉

Fantastic video in an awesome area of Bavaria. May I, however, remind viewers from outside Germany that this only one small aspect of German geography, landscape, culture, architecture, etc. Germany also has fantastic big rivers - the Danube and Rhine are just the biggest ones, with castles on every other hilltop; There's the North Sea and the Baltic Sea with beaches; the wine regions with vinyards everywhere - especially in the fall, when the leaves turn golden, and every village has their own wine festival. Then there is truly amazing industrial culture in the cities. And so much more ... Hopefully you will be able to see and vlog these, too in the future.

On our way to Croatia we took a 2 day stop over in Bad Reichenhall to visit the Königssee and Salzburg before heading on. We also took the boat tour and a hike at the Obersee. I definitely want to come back here. :-)

What a lovely trip that must’ve been! We are excited to go to Croatia, too.

@@MyMerryMessyGermanLife It was a nice vacation, although we had a few problems on the way to Croatia. At the border I realized that I had lost my ID and we had to turn back and go to Ljubljana. There I obtained a temporary passport at the German Embassy with which we were able to enter Croatia. So we arrived at the hotel with one day delay. But on the other hand we had the unplanned possibility to visit Ljubljana, which is a really nice city.

what a good camerawork, and Kaiserschmarrn after a good hikingtour is always delicious; there is so much in Berchtesgaden to see; Rodelbahn, Salzbergwerk, with the Cablecar up to watzmann near to 2000m

Again a very nice video! I was there nearly 40 years ago in my childhood, but I can remember the thing with the echo :-). It seems as if your trip was a few weeks ago? You should return when it is warm and sunny!
@MyMerryMessyGermanLife 2 жыл бұрын
Yes indeed - we do need to return when it is warmer! We did. This trip during the Pentacost holidays at the very end of May. It takes a while to edit and get these videos ready and we got a little behind!

looks like you picked a cold day for the excursion... I drove From Kitzbuhel, Austria to Fuessen in 1993. I wish I had more time and taken my time to turn left and explore this beautiful area also. Maybe, when I'm able to return to Germany after covid to visit my sister, can we both come tour the sights... But only when it's warmer.

If I may suggest you a location to visit. The salt mine in Berchtesgaden is for kids and adults totally exciting with its slides and the boat trip under/in the mountain.

@@MyMerryMessyGermanLife It is absolutely worth to see. I have visit the mine in my childhood too. I remember the salt mine-train, the illuminated salt blocks, the black jackets and the helmet you have to wear. And the slide makes a lot of fun. I remember that we all got a leather rag for our butt in order to slide down. Absolutly amazing!

As a precaution, I carry my passport, residency card, and driver's license anytime Mike and I go on an adventure. Mike suggested that I do this when we first moved here, and it has just become a habit. Great video! I haven't really traveled south yet. We are staying as local as possible right now.
@MyMerryMessyGermanLife 2 жыл бұрын
Same here, staying local. Are you also an expat/immigrant here in Germany? Yes we hadn’t received yet our residence cards when we went on this trip. Now we have them so it’d be easier to travel. We were told not to leave the country until our residence cards came as it’d be difficult to get back in.
