There is no telling where he died. He could have easily escaped the bunker.
How? The Russians had pretty much encircled Berlin in April 1945. Or are you thinking he escaped prior to that?
General Franco's driver Stefan Aceituna claimed that Hitler was flown from Berlin on the night of 27 April leaving behind a double who was seen in the
bunker. SS Gen Hans Feiglein who also disappeared that night claimed to his mistress Mdm Rizzler the eve of his disappearance that Hitler had a double
in the bunker.
At least two large Junkers Ju290 aircraft, including one which was Hitler's personal Ju290-A6 is known to have flown from Prague to Barcelona that
night. That aircraft ended up flown in service by the Spanish Air Force.

The East West Axis (Ost-West-Achse) was turned into an extremely wide runway and from 26 April to 29 April received multiple landings by various
aircraft. That particular runway however had large monuments at either end (Siegessäule and Bandenberger Tor) making approach and take of hazardous.
Another Boulevard Bellevueallee crossed the east west axis diagonally and this was also use as a runway.
Looking across the Tiergarten runway to Siegessäule
A trailer transported radar apparatus was set up by the Germans to provide approach guidance and also a Non Directional Beacon (NDB radio beacon) was
established there before Berlin was encircled.
The East West Axis through Berlin's Tiergarten was used by at least two Ju-52 of Luftwaffe Gen Hans Bauer's FdF (Hitler's personal Squadron), plus up
to six Ju-352 aircraft (G6+XY, G6+UY, G6+WY, G6+RX, G6+YY, G6 + EX and G6+NX) all aircraft of KG.zbV2 (“Großraumtransportstaffel” II/TG4),
Lufttransport Gruppe 4 (aka Squadron „Mauß), also by Ju-290 (9V+BK) piloted by Lt Herbert Wagner and by two FW-200 belonging to FdF (one coded
TK+CV the other CE+IC). In addition a Ju-352 operated by FdF stkz KT+VJ piloted by Olt Schultz is known to have made repeated flights to the East West
Axis ferrying in the naval reserve unit 1.FuMLAbt. Four Arado 232 aircraft, codes A3 + QB, A3 + RB, A3 + SB and A3 + TB also made flights into
Berlin.
One Ju52 flown into Berlin was flown by Oberfeldwebel Böhm from II./TGr 3 and another Ju52 by Uffz. Johannes Lachmund who described events in his
2009 memoir: Fliegen ; Mein Traumberuf – bis zu den bitteren Erlebnissen des Krieges, pub by Verlagshaus Monsenstein und Vannerdat OHG Münster,
2009
Additionally on the night 25th/26th of April, Ju 52 floatplanes of 3./I./TG 1 conveyed 175 men of Stralsund Alarm Batallion (1.SStR) from Pütnitz
(near Ribnitz) to Havel See, Berlin. Bv138 aircraft of KG200 also operated to Havel See.
Stefan Aceituna claims that from Barcelona, Hitler arrived at Madrid under the alis; Adis Lupi on 30 April with a large German entourage who took over
an entire wing of Franco's Presidential Palace. Aceituna insists that Hitler died of a massive coronary in the early morning of 2 November 1947.
Hardly surprising for a man so wracked by anxiety and fallen from grace.
