Bavarian Prealps

The Bavarian Prealps extend 80 kilometers from the Loisach River to the Inn River, with limestone cliffs and peaks reaching 2086 meters in elevation.

Archaeological evidence indicates human settlements in the Bavarian Prealps date back to the Neolithic period, with inhabitants engaging in hunting and pasturing activities.

Local communities in the Bavarian Prealps maintain dairy farming traditions, producing regional specialties in the mountain pastures throughout seasonal cycles.

The mountain range contains multiple access points for hiking, including the towns of Bad Tölz and Tegernsee, which provide visitor facilities and accommodation options.

The Mangfall Mountains in the eastern section of the range function as a natural water reservoir, supplying groundwater resources to Munich's population.
