Yes, very good video! Many thanks! Hitler last visited the Berghof in July 1944, never to return. He went very seldom to the Mooslahnerkopf after Barbarossa, which saw him in German East Prussia for much of the war.
Even 10 years ago they still demolished the last remains of the teahaus. Totally absurd. You can find footage from 2014 where an excavator is doing the unessercary job of destroying history. Thanks for this great video
@@NateM99 This was pure nonsense, to even then in 2014 still wanting to demolish a historic site. It's also totally contradictive. Because the entire area of Bergdegaden is one big goldmine, due to the fact that hundereds of thousands of tourist come to this place to visist all remaining buildings like the eaglesnest. So the bavarian gouvernement makes lots of money on the toursists who visits this place all year long If it was really for "destroying evil", why then did they not destroy ther entire area?
The Germans hate meanwhile everything German. A result of the "Frankfurt School" which btw was also established in Berkeley, CA by Herbert Marcuse. We can see the result of his accomplishments pretty clear today.
I'm not in favor of destroying history regardless weather it was good or bad, that tea house never hurt anybody and it would have been a place to reflect
After negotiations between the Americans and govenment of Bavaria, only part of the Obersalzberg, which also included the area of the Berghof ruins, was returned under the strict condition that the Berghof and the Göring House were completely razed to the ground !! In this sense, the Obersalzberg belonged to the US government until 1996
Having just returned from Berchtesgaden and trying to squeeze everything into a full day, my 17 year old son and I parked behind the Golf Club and walked across the golf course in search of the look-out without knowing exactly where to locate it. Thanks to your video, I now know that when we got the top back portion of the golf green, we hopped the barbed wire fence and rather than turning left and getting there in literally 2-3 minutes, we mistakenly went right and ended up finding a one-man concrete bomb shelter/guard post and then we lost daylight. I am so frustrated that we were literally SO CLOSE and yet... so far. Looks like I will be back again to cover this area more extensively. Thank you for sharing this video, for history buffs like myself, these provide invaluable information.
Thank you for amazing video. It's been long time since I've seen notification from you on YT. I agree it's very interesting that war criminals statues still stand across west and east, but tiny tea house had to be completely eradicated. Lucky they weren't able to complete even that and foundation stand. Great old German craftsmanship :) Allied rabid destruction hysteria is very disgusting to me, lenght they went to destroy everything possible shows you how paranoid they were. As they say in my heimat, hat is burning on thief's head ;) I'm Oberschlesier, 75% of German descent, my grandfather fought whole war but survived. I'm sure you are aware what happened with Schlesien, at end of war and after, so I'll leave it at that.
There is so much history that still needs to be told and re-told, such as the allied shootings of French civillians during their 'liberation', the vast destruction of towns in the Ukraine when Russian troops retreated in 1939 etc.... its becoming more difficult as most social media sites actively restrict content that gives other sides of history. Would have been amazing to interview your Grandfather!
ont ne doit pas détruire les vestiges d un grand pays comme l était l Allemagne nationale socialiste. Pourquoi l Allemagne et les goulags russes et d autres lieux n ont pas été détruits. Y'a en vérité un grand sentiment de frustration des pays de la part de pays Européens.
I visited the Mooslahnerkopf in 2019 and the remains of the teahouse wall were still visible. Someone is taking care of the place, the railings had been partially renewed back then. The place offers a beautiful view and history anyway.
Some constructive corrections if I may: 0:45 "Every morning"? He was notorious for sleeping until lunchtime (and beyond!). Also he did the walk most days but not all. 3:05 "The Watzmann" - do you mean the Untersberg? 12:06 "100 years ago"? In 1924? Hitler was in jail! Also the teehaus wasn't built until 1937. 12:24 Hitler didn't always take Blondi with him. There are plenty of photographs of the walk without the dog. 12:43 Blondi died on the 29th of April. 13:40 The Doku Center no longer believes that the Kehlsteinhaus was a birthday gift. 14:25 I don't believe the cars travelled on this route - they approached and departed the teehaus from a different direction. 17:25 Eva was a long way off from being his wife when she was here. Hitler left the Berghof for the last time on 14 July 1944 and he married Eva on 29 April 1945. 17:33 It wasn't the grandeur of the Kehlsteinhaus that he didn't like (it's not that grand actually - the view is though!). He was afraid of heights and of getting trapped in the elevator (which is why it has a rather unique escape system). 18:38 There are no fewer than 42 known attempts on his life but "over 50" cannot be verified. 26:12 It's documented that Hitler did often fall asleep in the teehaus but I've never seen or heard any evidence that the photo shown is him just briefly closing his eyes. I hope that helps.
Enjoyable presentation. I majored in History in college, and WWII was/is my favorite era to study. I’m always learning more and more and appreciate efforts like you’ve put forth here. Thanks for the breathtaking views and the interesting commentary.😊
Awesome video. The song at the most critical part of the path (with falling trees) was really somber. I almost could see ghost soldiers around lol... Loved it.
Fantastic video. I tried to find this place last year but couldn’t find the track. I won’t miss it next time now. My wife also struggled with the walk back lol. Look forward to viewing your other videos! Thank you!
I had ideas to do this walk in early December last year (2023) but a blizzard covered the whole area in snow on Dec 1st so it made the walk impossible. Very disappointing. Thanks for doing this. How such awful things could be planned surrounded by such beauty is beyond me.
Thanks so much. I was in town with a tour group for 3 nights last May & didn't understand why we didn't take a quick stroll to see the tea house site. Now I understand that it wasn't quick at all & that most of our group wouldn't have been able to make the round trip! Well done!
It's truly shocking to imagine the evil deeds that were planned whilst walking through such peaceful and picturesque scenery. Many thanks for sharing this walk-through history. 👍
Any idea what the new owners of the Hotel Zum Turken are going to do with it? Also, comment on Bomber Harris is spot on. Why the need to destroy an intimate little tea house, in a most beautiful serene setting is beyond me. Great series, thank you!
Fantastic vid, really enjoyed it. Yes it was very bizarre that they demolished the little tea house but spared the more grandiose kehlsteinhaus for example. Many thanks for the upload!
@@Gerd93.5 Hi. I was referring to the Allied and post-war German authorities getting rid of everything to do with the natsees but strangely keeping the eagles nest. Shouldn't they have blown that up too in line with their policies? It just seems odd that got rid of the little tea house. That's the point I was trying to make!
By 1950 the Bavarian government knew that the Kehlsteinhaus would be a gold mine for tourism money (which it certainly turned out to be). That’s why it wasn’t destroyed in 1951-52.
Excellent content your channel is excellent I very much enjoy watching your knowledge is absolutely outstanding it's great to see for historical purposes and I very much appreciate the effort you put in thank you from the UK
A fantastic video! Thank you for allowing us to experience a nearly forgotten piece of Hitler's personal history. Tragic that nearly all of the building from that period were destroyed.
Thank you very much for uploading. I always had this as a burning question, which walk he would undertake, since it is spoken of in a lot of texts. So thank you for creating this!
This route is not the one walked by Hitler. His original path is now part of the golf course and on private land and there are no remains of it. The only part of this walk that follows the original is a short section at the very end.
@@CraigCanberra Oh well I just learned from this video, that Hitler took a multiple pathways, so not always the same route. And I think I will hang fit with that lesson. But sure it was mentioned in the video that there was another path as you describe so? Did you even watch the full video, or did you not listen? It is mentioned.
Yes, Hitler followed more than one path. The point is, Hitler did NOT use the path shown in this video. Beyond the Spahn Haus, there was no path going down the hill then, except a path through the woods that the guards followed to stay out of Hitler’s sight (Hitler didn’t like to see guards while on his walks). Same with the path through the woods later on. This was nothing but a simple walking path used by the guards - not by Hitler. Hitler’s group was out in the open, not following this path, except at the very end approaching the Teehaus.
Fantastic, so interesting to go on the actual walk. One point you mention, that Hitler's dog Blondi died faithfully by his side when the truth, as far as I'm aware, is she was murdered by Hitler before he killed himself
I spent three days in Berchtesgaden last August, but missed this walk so your video provides and insight into what I can expect on my next visit. History has a habit of being conveniently forgotten, and the events around WW2 did happen, good or bad.....
My dear late old friend Ingrid Scharfenberg owner of Türken, introduced me to Herbert Döring way back when. He was Hausverwalter of the Berghof, and....a very amusing entertaining man. Sadly they are all gone now...
rdmountford, I had the great pleasure of meeting Ingrid several times. She was very outspoken and I listened carefully of her account of WW2 and the Nazi era. A wonderful and intelligent woman.
If Hitler had embraced the energy of Light he would be remembered positively for centuries to come, but unfortunately he embraced the energy of Darkness, leading millions of followers into the abyss. ... This place appears to have been untouched since the 1930s. Who owns this land ?
We visited Berchtesgaden a few times. But we had no clue where the old teahouse was, or how to get there! Next Time I will know where to walk to! Thx for this nice historical video!!
Thank you great video. It would be interesting to know by which road Hitler was driven back to the Berghof from the Teahouse, as it seems lost in the middle of the woods. Was there a road close to it, if yes is it still in use ? On google earth there seems to be dirt roads south an west of the Teahouse, but it's difficult to evaluate the slope, knowing that Hitler would never be able and willing to climb a steep slope before reaching his car, as he was physically weak and didn't like physical effort
9:30 .... Hitler mumbles under breath... Goering.... ; P just kidding! Great video: I'm loving the new camera equipment or adjusted settings you have made to the equipment; the picture is absolutely beautiful. The 2024 series seems as though it will be full of action and excitement based on the preview video you have released. Otherwise, I can appreciate the fact that Hitler devoted this time to complete some of his most critical thinking; despite as you mention in the prologue some of the destruction the ''results'' of these walks caused in their wake, speaking of the action of walking and thinking I have been of the opinion since I was a young man that I do some of my best thinking while I am walking... alone would be the difference for me as opposed to in the company of others as Hitler often was as you mention.... the silence and absence of the ability to commit to anything structured beyond inner thought is where I find it to be most appealing and constructive as an exercise both physically and mentally. I'm going to finish the video now. Can't wait to see and hear what you have in store for the calendar year of twenty twenty four! (i repeated the word on purpose youtube because the last sentence is a "jingle")
Such a beautiful area. I have always wanted to visit Germany and England as that is where my family came from a long long time ago. Thank you for this walk.
I have stayed at the Hotel Zum Turken and also found the walk you have done. Hitler used to get a ride back to the Berghof after his visit to the tea house. It was good to take that walk again with you.
A few weeks ago on a hot day I followed your route down to the overlook. I carried 25 pounds of camera gear/lenses in a backpack. Returning to Hitler's driveway was a serious ass-kicking! Another car came in to park and I could tell they were Americans too. Feeling tired and frisky, I said, "Hey! Hitler said he doesn't want you parking in his driveway!" We had a good laugh!
This is not the historical path he took to the teahouse. The original path started just after the tree at the entrance of his alley way down to the left. Not the path down along the golf course nowadays. The original path doesn't exist anymore... There's a bit of it left but it's on private ground ( golf course)There is plenty information to be found about it ...
@@Snowboarder16 as i mentioned already, there's plenty of videos on youtube and articles on the web about this. But since you only joined youtube a few weeks ago ...
Outstanding good sir. Much thanks to you and your wife for sharing this beautiful walk into history. I wish someday to visit Obersalzburg and explor everything. ❤💯
Henning, vielen Dank für deine herausragende Arbeit! Ich durfte selber schon mehrmals das Führersperrgebiet Obersalzberg besuchen. Du gehst aber mit deinem Wissen viel tiefer in das Thema rein und bietest völlig neue Einblicke. Kennst du die Seiten BEGAFILM und BEGAFILM - HISTORY IN MOTION hier auf TH-cam?

Nice video - I did the same walk a year ago April. You sure aren’t going to sneak up on anyone. My Dji built in mic doesn’t pick up my footsteps like that.
This is so awesome!! You are treading the same gravel that the fuhrer tread!! All of his building should have been kept and preserved and rebuilt. Do you realize how many people would make that pilgrimage and pay well to do all of this ?! Thank you for your hard work.

Now that I no longer live in the U.S., moved to the Bslkans 13yrs ago after retiring, I can revisit many old sites like this throughout Germany, and Austria, that I did 20+ yrs ago, in the snow and cold. Spending much more time in that particular area. Most likely by myself as my Russia wife isn't to keen on my fascination with that time in history. Thanks so much for making this really nice video, with no annoying tourists around, most having no interest in history, only to say they've been there.
Nice walk and I bet you’re a drummer because your foot steps are keeping good time. 1234! Ha! Interesting video and idyllic landscape. So beautiful. Unfortunately Hitler was a wicked soul. Thanks for sharing.
I was stationed in Germany from 1969 to 1972 in the U.S, Army and went to the Berghof a couple of times. The Army had turned a Hotel Platterhof into a resort Hotel for U.S. Army personel. Beautiful Views.
It’s hard to imagine that evil ,dark decisions were made in such beautiful surroundings,they must have thought they were gods up there above everyone else! Fascinating video,Thanks!
Der originale weg ging damals über den Golfplatz an den Bäumen vorbei. Am Tor neben der Hütte ging es damals rein. Ist heute aber leider wegen den Spielzeiten nicht mehr öffentlich begehbar. Haben die alten Einwohner aus berchtesgaden erzählt.
I just subbed. I was wondering who built those structures on such rough terrain. Was it actual German citizens, slave labor, or a combination of both. And maybe I was paying attention, but why was the trail leading to the Tea House basically left to nature to reclaim.
Excellent video! Somebody needs to draw a map of that trail. It's a shame they destroyed the teahouse. It was history. The same applies to Hitler's bunker in Berlin.
If you do an internet search for “Hitler’s Teehaus Walk” and then follow the link to the page called Teehaus Walk, you can see maps and the actual routes followed by Hitler’s group.
Sounds like you have a bunch of stormtroopers marching right behind you?! :) Shameful to demolish so much without good reason - at least most of the Atlantic wall was too big to blow up. Lots on the channel islands especially Alderney, definitely worth a visit.
Was there in 2017. I thought you would show the one or two man bomb shelter that was about 3/4's of the way down on the right hand side. A concrete cylindrical structure.
Very interesting video. Im surprised that Hitler waked that distance. Obviously he walked with a much slower pace, but its a good 5 km walk. It just sad to destroy part of History after so many years.
This was fascinating, thank you for telling the truth about Dresden, it was a genocidal, unnecessary bombing of innocent civilians….disgusting. All we can say is that those responsible did not get a pass on their last judgement, we pray that Germany is freed from the terrible elite that now rule it. We love Germany and its great people.
Interesting work but as many have already written here, it is not entirely the original way. In all of Hitler's photos you can see that he and his guests only wore street shoes

votre commentaire est très intelligent et je suis totalement d accord avec vous.
Also erasing the rest of history and the very countries that 'won'
I agree, why do we destroy history, regardless of the significance of the structure. We teach and learn from these relics.

Not at 3:05. That’s certainly the Untersberg. The Watzmann is not visible from where he was walking at that point.
You are 100% correct in all your comments. But, the video was nicely done, and for those who search the spot a perfect guide on how to get there. 👍
@craig,,, History lessons have been informative. Is there any pictures of the teahause before it was destroyed?
The altitude apparently affected Hitler not fear.
Wow , thank you for posting this , would you be able to do another walk with then and now pictures , that would be great

On google earth there seems to be dirt roads south an west of the Teahouse, but it's difficult to evaluate the slope, knowing that Hitler would never be able and willing to climb a steep slope before reaching his car, as he was physically weak and didn't like physical effort
Spring is the best time to take photographs to identify ancient areas...
9:30 .... Hitler mumbles under breath... Goering.... ; P just kidding! Great video: I'm loving the new camera equipment or adjusted settings you have made to the equipment; the picture is absolutely beautiful. The 2024 series seems as though it will be full of action and excitement based on the preview video you have released.
Otherwise, I can appreciate the fact that Hitler devoted this time to complete some of his most critical thinking; despite as you mention in the prologue some of the destruction the ''results'' of these walks caused in their wake, speaking of the action of walking and thinking I have been of the opinion since I was a young man that I do some of my best thinking while I am walking... alone would be the difference for me as opposed to in the company of others as Hitler often was as you mention.... the silence and absence of the ability to commit to anything structured beyond inner thought is where I find it to be most appealing and constructive as an exercise both physically and mentally.
I'm going to finish the video now. Can't wait to see and hear what you have in store for the calendar year of twenty twenty four! (i repeated the word on purpose youtube because the last sentence is a "jingle")
Chuck, thank you kindly, Goering would not have made it down the hill lol
That was a very worthwhile watch! Thank you very much!
Very enjoyable. Tragic that the tea house was destroyed.
Such a beautiful area. I have always wanted to visit Germany and England as that is where my family came from a long long time ago. Thank you for this walk.
I have stayed at the Hotel Zum Turken and also found the walk you have done. Hitler used to get a ride back to the Berghof after his visit to the tea house. It was good to take that walk again with you.
Very good video, thank you! What is the distance between the Berghof and the Teahouse?
A few weeks ago on a hot day I followed your route down to the overlook. I carried 25 pounds of camera gear/lenses in a backpack. Returning to Hitler's driveway was a serious ass-kicking! Another car came in to park and I could tell they were Americans too. Feeling tired and frisky, I said, "Hey! Hitler said he doesn't want you parking in his driveway!" We had a good laugh!
Absolutely great! Thank you!
I was in Berchtesgaden in 2022 and went to the Eagles Nest. I need to go back and do this walk.
Excellent and informative video. Thank you.
This is not the historical path he took to the teahouse. The original path started just after the tree at the entrance of his alley way down to the left. Not the path down along the golf course nowadays. The original path doesn't exist anymore... There's a bit of it left but it's on private ground ( golf course)There is plenty information to be found about it ...
How do you know that?
@@Snowboarder16 as i mentioned already, there's plenty of videos on youtube and articles on the web about this. But since you only joined youtube a few weeks ago ...
He said that.
Any chance of a guided tour of the area?
Spot on video. 10/10
Outstanding good sir. Much thanks to you and your wife for sharing this beautiful walk into history. I wish someday to visit Obersalzburg and explor everything.
❤💯
Henning, vielen Dank für deine herausragende Arbeit!
Ich durfte selber schon mehrmals das Führersperrgebiet Obersalzberg besuchen. Du gehst aber mit deinem Wissen viel tiefer in das Thema rein und bietest völlig neue Einblicke.
Kennst du die Seiten BEGAFILM und BEGAFILM - HISTORY IN MOTION hier auf TH-cam?
Great video and well presented too. Fascinating To think Hitler walked the very same paths. Thank for sharing 👍
This route is not the one walked by Hitler. His original path is now part of the golf course and on private land and there are no remains of it. The only part of this walk that follows the original is a short section at the very end.
Nice video - I did the same walk a year ago April. You sure aren’t going to sneak up on anyone. My Dji built in mic doesn’t pick up my footsteps like that.
Thank you, love from England
Hitler had a nice walk, and can see why he was driven back home! Great video
This is so awesome!! You are treading the same gravel that the fuhrer tread!! All of his building should have been kept and preserved and rebuilt. Do you realize how many people would make that pilgrimage and pay well to do all of this ?! Thank you for your hard work.

great production I was there last year and I loved it
❤ Great video! Thank you! God bless!
that was an exellant walk...people come and go ,but mountains remain.
Great video. I saw pictures of the demolition of the teahaus.
footwalk noise is great ! like soldiers walkin noise ... perfect for this place ! ... i been there also 6/2023 !
Do you take others on this walk. I'd love to accompany you in June when I plan a visit
Now that I no longer live in the U.S., moved to the Bslkans 13yrs ago after retiring, I can revisit many old sites like this throughout Germany, and Austria, that I did 20+ yrs ago, in the snow and cold. Spending much more time in that particular area. Most likely by myself as my Russia wife isn't to keen on my fascination with that time in history. Thanks so much for making this really nice video, with no annoying tourists around, most having no interest in history, only to say they've been there.
Nice walk and I bet you’re a drummer because your foot steps are keeping good time. 1234! Ha! Interesting video and idyllic landscape. So beautiful. Unfortunately Hitler was a wicked soul. Thanks for sharing.
I was stationed in Germany from 1969 to 1972 in the U.S, Army and went to the Berghof a couple of times. The Army had turned a Hotel Platterhof into a resort Hotel for U.S. Army personel. Beautiful Views.
Too bad you didn’t appreciate the history and do things like this man’s walk
It’s hard to imagine that evil ,dark decisions were made in such beautiful surroundings,they must have thought they were gods up there above everyone else! Fascinating video,Thanks!
Did that same walk last September, amazing how many bomb craters can still be seen in the woods before you reach the golf course.
Der originale weg ging damals über den Golfplatz an den Bäumen vorbei. Am Tor neben der Hütte ging es damals rein. Ist heute aber leider wegen den Spielzeiten nicht mehr öffentlich begehbar. Haben die alten Einwohner aus berchtesgaden erzählt.
just wondering, & have wondered for a long time if that wooden seat was the original wooden seat where Hitler used to sit?
No, the original bench was longer. It is long gone.
@@geoffwalden2766 probably looted as a souvenir, at some stage
Thanks for makingthehike for all of us.Beautiful land forest and mountains
Very enjoyable video , thank you
Brilliant excellent video thank-you so informative 👍
What is the distance of this walk?
Brilliant video, but the dramatic music ruins the atmosphere 👍
I just subbed. I was wondering who built those structures on such rough terrain. Was it actual German citizens, slave labor, or a combination of both. And maybe I was paying attention, but why was the trail leading to the Tea House basically left to nature to reclaim.
Excellent video! Somebody needs to draw a map of that trail.
It's a shame they destroyed the teahouse. It was history. The same applies to Hitler's bunker in Berlin.
If you do an internet search for “Hitler’s Teehaus Walk” and then follow the link to the page called Teehaus Walk, you can see maps and the actual routes followed by Hitler’s group.
Sounds like you have a bunch of stormtroopers marching right behind you?! :) Shameful to demolish so much without good reason - at least most of the Atlantic wall was too big to blow up. Lots on the channel islands especially Alderney, definitely worth a visit.
Was there in 2017. I thought you would show the one or two man bomb shelter that was about 3/4's of the way down on the right hand side. A concrete cylindrical structure.
Very interesting video. Im surprised that Hitler waked that distance. Obviously he walked with a much slower pace, but its a good 5 km walk.
It just sad to destroy part of History after so many years.
Danke sehr
Fascinating content 👍
Wow I had no idea they have a statue of the guy who bombed Dresden??? whaaaaaat. that's crazy
This was fascinating, thank you for telling the truth about Dresden, it was a genocidal, unnecessary bombing of innocent civilians….disgusting. All we can say is that those responsible did not get a pass on their last judgement, we pray that Germany is freed from the terrible elite that now rule
it. We love Germany and its great people.
Спасибо за отличный видио работу😊
This is awesome! Ty
What a beautiful world we live in !
outstanding video
great video, i didn't know about the tea house
Interesting work but as many have already written here, it is not entirely the original way. In all of Hitler's photos you can see that he and his guests only wore street shoes
You sure?
great walk , great insight, danke schon ich mag deine geschichte , abonniert
Nice walk but some wrong informations
