With the bikes from the campsite to the Königsee. Park your bikes there, explore the bobsleigh run and the Malerwinkel.
On the way back, made a detour underground to the Berchtesgaden salt mine.
The arrangement of the pictures doesn't fit again 🤷🏾‍♂️
Otherwise a nice tour with a little shower at the Königsee.
