Inn Glacier, Alpine glacier in Bavaria, Germany
The Inn Glacier extends through the Bavarian Alps, forming a substantial ice mass that influences the regional water systems and mountain landscapes.
During the Quaternary period, the Inn Glacier reached its maximum extent during the Mindel and Riss glaciations, extending 70 kilometers from the mountain front.
The glacier area maintains traditional German Alpine customs, with local mountain refuges serving regional specialties and hosting seasonal celebrations.
Visitors can access the glacier region through well-maintained mountain paths from nearby towns, with guided tours available from June through September.
The glacier created numerous lakes during its retreat, including Rosenheim Lake, which emerged approximately 19,000 years ago during deglaciation.
