Feuerpalven, Mountain viewpoint in Berchtesgaden Alps, Germany.
Feuerpalven rises to 1728 meters in elevation, offering direct views of Watzmann mountain face and Königssee lake from its observation platform.
The mountain paths around Feuerpalven follow ancient Roman trading routes that connected settlements across the Bavarian Alps during the early centuries.
The mountain location serves as a meeting point for traditional Bavarian mountaineers who gather annually to celebrate regional Alpine customs and songs.
Visitors can reach Feuerpalven through multiple hiking trails, including routes from Regenalm or Gotzentalalm, starting at the Kessel boat landing.
The observation point presents a 1100-meter vertical drop to Königssee, with St. Bartholomä chapel visible on the opposite shore of the lake.
