Echinger Lohe, Nature reserve in Eching, Germany.

The Echinger Lohe nature reserve extends across 23.8 hectares of land within the Munich Gravel Plain, containing deciduous forest with oak and hornbeam trees.

The area received its first protective designation in 1942, followed by official establishment as a nature reserve in 1951 and natural forest reserve status in 1978.

Bronze Age burial mounds within the reserve provide evidence of early human settlements and funeral customs in the Bavarian region.

A 6.84-kilometer hiking loop starts from the Dietersheim parking lot, featuring mountain paths and unpaved roads through varied elevation levels.

The forest maintains its natural state through a complete prohibition of forestry activities, allowing rare plant and animal species to thrive undisturbed.
