It's on the slope of the Mont Agel, which is 1148 m high. Saying that Monaco isn't in the Alps would also mean that Grenoble isn't, it's only 204 m high :)

you need to add eagle´s nest or Kehlsteinhaus but obersalzberg ist definitely not fully correct (name of the area but not the chalet itself....)
