Final Alpine Ride to Berchtesgaden Eagle’s Nest, Königssee & Arnhem European Motorcycle Tour

In the final episode of my European motorcycle adventure, I leave the Austrian town of Lienz and head north towards the iconic region of Berchtesgaden. Setting off early on a peaceful Sunday morning, I enjoyed the rare treat of quiet Alpine roads almost entirely to myself — the perfect conditions for riding through some of the most beautiful scenery in Europe.

A small satnav error (yes… probably my fault!) unexpectedly led me to a Motorail system — a unique experience where you load your motorcycle onto a train and get ferried through a mountain pass, saving hours of riding time. An unexpected twist, but one I’ll never forget!

Berchtesgaden has long been on my bucket list, especially for the chance to visit the historic Kehlsteinhaus — known to the Allies as Hitler’s Eagle’s Nest. While in the area, I finally explored the breathtaking Königssee, travelling its full length aboard a silent electric boat surrounded by towering cliffs and crystal-clear alpine water. The scenery was simply stunning.

My final overnight stay took me to Arnhem, the site of one of the most intense and tragic battles of World War II. Visiting such a historically significant location and learning the details of the events that unfolded there was a powerful and sobering experience.

If you enjoy motorcycle touring, stunning European landscapes, Alpine passes, history, or BMW R1250RT adventures, this episode wraps up the journey perfectly.
