Besler, Mountain summit in Bavaria, Germany

Besler mountain rises to 1,679 meters above sea level, featuring a central peak and western summit known as Schafkopf at 1,602 meters.

The Königsweg trail to Besler summit received its name from King Max II of Bavaria who frequented these paths during his mountain expeditions.
