The Hoher Göll massif rises above Obersalzberg near Berchtesgaden. It lies between the Königssee and Königsseer Ache in the west, opposite the Watzmann and the Salzach Valley of the Tennengau region in the east. Neighbouring peaks include Hohes Brett, Jenner and the Kehlstein spur with the famous Kehlsteinhaus, linked to the Hoher Göll via the Mannlgrat ridge.
