after spending some time in berchtesgaden trying to locate the starting point going to eagles nest.. we were able to find the entry to the park which was halfway up the mountain.. we boarded a tram that would take us further to the upper half of the mountain.. after unboarding the tram we passed through a tunnel leading to an elevator that goes up more than four storeys high

the climb to the cross made me gasp for air for a minute .. probably because of the lack of oxygen at that altitude.. the scenery is worth the climb though
