Bischofswiesen

Bischofswiesen lies in the Berchtesgaden valley, where wooded foothills rise toward the Watzmann and Hochkalter massifs of the Berchtesgaden Alps. This dispersed Bavarian municipality occupies the quieter northern side of the national-park region, close to Berchtesgaden and the Austrian border. Götschen, above the settlement, is a local skiing mountain, while paths and roads lead through meadows, forests and small hamlets rather than an urban centre. Alpine farmhouses, parish churches and Upper Bavarian customs shape the area, while salt mining in nearby Berchtesgaden has influenced the valley’s economy for centuries.
