After the salt mine, we met up with David Harper from Eagle's Nest Tours and as it was a gorgeous day, he was able to take us to the summit. The so-called “Eagle’s Nest” was built as teahouse for Adolf Hitler’s 50th birthday. It's perched up on a mountain summit, so to get there we had to take a train, then an elevator. In its day, it was a unique engineering feat. Hitler’s home and headquarters - the second seat of 3rd Reich power - were actually located at Obersalzberg, which is at the foot of the Eagle’s Nest mountain. David also took us to the underground bunkers, which are very extensive.
The end of the day was in Ruhpolding, which is a great place to be based in the Alps. We had a quick visit to the Woodcutter's Museum, then enjoyed a fun Bavarian meal complete with dancers!
After we toured the palace, we took a second boat ride to Fraueninsel "Ladies' Island" which has a convent and a number of little artisan shops. At Christmas this is definitely the place to go!
