“Big, mighty, fateful” it says lyrics about the Watzmann, and yet there is also a gentle side of the highest mountain in the core zone of the national park. On signposted paths, you can get closer to the imposing wilderness and enjoy the view of the peaks from the area with the alpine pastures and mountain huts. The myth of the Watzmann east face or crossing the three peaks - Hocheck, Mittelspitze, Südspitze - are well-known challenges for experienced mountaineers.
