Isarauen zwischen Hangenham und Moosburg, Protected area along Isar River in Bavaria, Germany.
Isarauen between Hangenham and Moosburg is a large protected area featuring riverbanks, forests, and meadows along the Isar River. The landscape is structured by multiple trails that connect observation points and link diverse natural habitats together.
The area received legal protection in 1985 to preserve the river landscape and its wildlife. This decision was part of broader efforts across Bavaria to safeguard the Isar's natural floodplain systems.
The area serves as a gathering place for nature observation, where visitors encounter birds and wildlife in their natural habitats. Local schools use the grounds to teach ecology and the importance of protecting living spaces.
The area features clearly marked trails suitable for different fitness levels and can be explored on foot or by bicycle. Stay on marked paths and avoid closed zones to protect nesting birds and sensitive habitats.
Four waterways converge in this protected zone: the Moosach, Goldach, Dorfen, and Sempt-Flutkanal all flow into the Isar. This meeting of river systems creates exceptionally varied habitats within a relatively compact area.
