The Berchtesgaden Alps belong to the Northern Limestone Alps and are crossed by the Austria–Germany border – the central part lies in Bavaria, the north, east and south in the Austrian state of Salzburg. The highest peak is the Hochkönig (2,941 m) on the Austrian side, while on the German side the Watzmann (2,713 m), Germany's third-highest mountain, dominates. Berchtesgaden National Park was established in 1978; at its heart lies the glacial lake Königssee with the pilgrimage church of St. Bartholomew.
