Klausbachtal trail closures

Two Klausbachtal trail sections are closed; use the Hirschbichlstraße (St 2099) to bypass them.

  • Trail No. 481 toward Bindalm, from Engert-Holzstube, is closed for several weeks while the footbridge over the Klausbach is renewed.
  • The trail between Lahnwald-Diensthütte and Ragert-Alm is expected to remain closed until December 2026 for the Water Management Office’s final phase of high-water-protection-dam repairs, which began on 5 October.
  • Weather may shift the work schedule; follow the current signs on site.

Check current trail conditions before setting out.

ClosureUpdated

“You're coming up on Königssee, where electric boats carry you between steep mountain walls beneath the Watzmann. I'd take the boat to St. Bartholomä for the red-domed church and a wander along the shore.”

Plays as you drive up to Königssee in the Parkwolf Berchtesgaden Tour Guide.
