Countryhouse Hochstaufenblick **** is part of Estate 'Kollmannsbrunn' and is situated in the surroundings of the Berchtesgadener National Park, adjacent to the border with Austria, and provides views of the idyllic farmland at the foot of the Hochstaufen, Zwiesel, and Predigstuhl mountains that lend their name to its three separate holiday apartments. ‘Staufen’ is a large, ground-floor family apartment with two bedrooms, while ‘Zwiesel’ and ‘Predigtstuhl’ offer smaller, one bedroom accommodation on the first floor. The property is surrounded by meadows and farmland, as well as country houses on the outskirts of the villages Bayerisch Gmain and its Austrian counterpart, Grossgmain. Footpaths and cycle ways lead directly from the house to the spa town of Bad Reichenhall (3 km), as well as nearby forests and the Austrian village of Grossgmain.

and in wintertime ...: opportunities for nordic skiing with cross-country ski runs close to the house, alpine skiing for beginners as well as the more advanced on the Obersalzberg and in the area around Jenner-Königssee, but also opportunities for snow-trekking as well as tranquil horse sleigh and carriage rides through romantic winter scenery for the somewhat less dynamic ...
From Munich take the motorway Munich/ Salzburg (A8). After about 130 km shortly before the Austrian border take the exit "Bad Reichenhall"/direction Berchtesgaden (federal road B20). Go through Bad Reichenhall, up the hill, and you will arrive in Bayerisch Gmain after about 2 km. There please make a left turn towards Grossgmain/Austria. After about 250 m turn left into "Taufkirchenweg". After about 150 m there is a sharp right bend which takes you to a fork. There keep left and continue on a country lane through open fields for about 250 m until you see a big farm house with green shutters on your left. Turn into the courtyard and ring the bell.
