# Berchtesgaden National Park

Berchtesgaden National Park is in the alpine section of Bavaria, south of the town of Berchtesgaden.

## Understand
### History

In 1978, to preserve the beauty of this region of lakes and mountains, the Bavarian government founded the Berchtesgaden National Park, which centres around the lake Königssee. Surrounded by high mountain walls at the end of the valley is the Obersee.

### Landscape

The Berchtesgaden National Park is covering an area of 210 km² or 81 sq. miles. It is state property in its entirety. Its high mountain landscapes are characterized by extensive forests and steep rock faces.

### Climate
## Get in

## See

* 47.5512.9751 Königssee. This emerald-green lake is surrounded by steep walls of rock, with the 1800-metre east wall of the Watzmann towering above its west shore. Around eight kilometres long and over a kilometre across at its widest point, and with a depth of up to 190 metres, the lake occupies the whole valley between the Watzmann in the west and the Jenner and Gotzenberg in the east. This jewel of the Bavarian Alps is a haven of peace.
* St Bartholomew's Church. The church in front of the east wall of the Watzmann, is a cultural highlight in this unspoilt countryside. The Palace and pilgrimage church were founded by the Prince-Provosts of Berchtesgaden in 1134. The triple-concha design of the church dates back to 1697; the stucco-work is by the Salzburg master Joseph Schmidt. In the 18th century the summer and hunting palace was rebuilt, with older building sections incorporated. After Berchtesgaden became part of Bavaria in 1810, the palace became a hunting lodge for the Bavarian kings and was one of their favourite haunts. Since the Romantic period, the world-famous pilgrimage church, set against the Watzmann range, has been a source of inspiration for numerous landscape painters.

A few telkari masters are trying to continue their job within Midyat bazaar.
The province, which is a part of Upper Mesopotamia, is founded in Tur-Abidin (Turabdin) Region. Midyat is known as "Matiate", which means cavern city in 9th century B. C. Asur Tablets. Probably its name is coming from this.

The nearest airports are Mardin Airport (MQM) and Batman Airport, which has flights from both Istanbul airports, Izmir, and Ankara (as of September 2024).

### By road

Although there are roads leading to the disrict from roughly all cardinal directions, your most likely point of entry will be Mardin and Batman.
Hitchhiking from Mardin (the ride should take around 2½-2 hours) is very easy, thanks to the hospitality of the local people.

### By bus

There are buses from Mardin and Batman, which take around 1 hour and cost 150 TL (As of 2025). Minibuses (dolmuş) from Diyarbakır take 3.5 hours and cost 300 TL(as of 2004).

### By plane

## Get around

You can easily explore the old town on foot. If you want to see the monasteries in the Tur Abdin and other attractions outside town, it’s best to have your own car, you can join a guided tour or find a local resident( though airbnb or couchsurfing) who could accommodate you.

There are some great places to choose from in the old town catering to every budget.

Paleontologists might want to visit to search for dinosaur remains or to view prehistoric fossils that are well preserved in the park's dry climate.

### History

The park was created as part of the Argentina national parks system in 1996 when the government purchased the land from private landowners.

### Landscape

The park covers a highland landscape dominated by mountains from 2,700 meters up to the peak of Cerro Malcante, which stands out with an elevation of 5,070 meters high.
