The SHIP is the ONLY way to see

Koenigssee

'Mode': AROUND
Category: Ship/Boat
Getting TO/AROUND: The ship is the only way to see Koenigsee, St. Bartholomae and Obersee, except maybe a few tiny, dangerous and steep mountain-paths through the woods. Along the way over the lake you may see only a few places, where something like a beach exists, in some cases with a small hut, but even those places are almost un-accesible except by boat (AND you may land there only upon prior appointment).
All of the ships will first go to St.Bartholomae and continue to Obersee, and will finally get back to St.Bartholomae again before they return to Schoenau.
All of these ships are powered by electric engines, you almost will not hear any noises at all.

Category: Bus
Getting TO/AROUND: In order to get to Koenigssee by public transportation, take the bus #840 from Salzburg Rathaus and change to Bus #839 or #843 in Berchtesgaden, the total ride will be a bit more than 1 hour and there is mostly 1 bus-connection each hour.
check the timetable here, and search for Koenigssee !
---- ---- ---- ---- ----In Schoenau am Koenigssee you may rent this small buggy with 2 seats for 50 Euros per day. You will not be able to make a lot of noise around Koenigsee,because you will not find any roads there, it is rather ment for the roads around Berchtesgaden and it might be funny to explore the scenic roads that way, when you came by public transportation to Koenigsee.
This Buggy is rented by Restaurant Schiffmeister , you will find this place, when walking from the ship-station to Seeklause - see their web-page below !
NO helmet needed, because there is a strong top and you have your seat-belts as well, Driving-licence is the one of a car !!

Getting TO/AROUND: Jenner is the mountain that is closest to Koenigsee, where you may get up by cablecar. and you will have an excellent view of the lake and the surrounding mountains.
Jenner-Bahn starts in Schoenau am Koenigssee, just about 200 meters above the large parking-area for Koenigsee.
Small cabins with just 2 seats will take you uphill.
Jennerbahn is also for skiing, prices vary a bit between summer and winter and you may as well get tickets for 5 days or a week, Jenner is also aquite popular place to start for paragliders.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There is a combination-ticket for
Jenner(up and down) + the ships on Koenigssee:
26,50 Euro to St. Bartholomae and return
(+3 euros extra for the ship to Salet)
both have to be done at the same day !
ordinary price would be 30,10 euros (+3,- for Salet)
