While stationed in Germany during the 60's, my wife and I spent a week in this area. Definitely beautiful, enchanting but with a somewhat ominous and mysterious aire about it. There was a fabulous pre-war hotel there called the General Walton Walker which was made into an R & R destination for GI's. You could walk from there around Hitler's Berghof house. Much destruction still evident...bomb craters, mine warnings etc. Once in a lifetime experience.
