ヴァルンガウの峡谷・トップ5

A beautiful piece of nature. The Kirchseemoorrunde is a highly recommended hike.

Nice view of the Mangfall

With the bike you go under the motorway over the Mangfall Gorge.

Great bridge for cyclists - great views into the Mangfall Gorge and saves a lot of meters in altitude.

A version of the various legends about the Teufelsgraben can be read here: https://www.sagen.at/texte/sagen/deutschland/bayern/isarwinkel/teufelsgraben.html In fact, the ditch was created by debris from the Karwendel Mountains clogging the course of the Isar and the meltwater had to find an alternative route at the end of the Würm Ice Age. It hollowed out the area west of Holzkirchen here. In the cool and often damp sea of trees in the Teufelsgraben you can go hiking and running. The valley stretches roughly in a northwesterly direction from Kirchsee to Grub over a total of 23 kilometers.

The A8 motorway bridge near Darching makes it possible to cross the Mangfall gorge by bike in the basement. In any case, the view is gigantic. Altitude meters can still be collected in abundance on the further route 😀. On the bike path between Weyarn and Darching.

About eight kilometers long, mostly wooded terrain in the Bavarian foothills of the Alps between Föggenbeuern near Dietramszell and Egling, although I have not marked the piece between Egling and Thanning (because it is a road). You can roll wonderfully in both directions here, sometimes wider, sometimes narrower, sometimes rooty and there are also short pieces of tar. The incision begins south of Föggenbeuern and meanders six kilometers almost due north, turning west near Fraßhausen and Wörschhausen. From here, at the beginning of the 18th century, the abbot of the Schäftlarn monastery created the three ponds in Thanning for fish farming. These are fed by the Moosbach, which rises in the Reichertshauser valley a few hundred meters above the first pond in the Frauenholz area. The valley ends in Egling.

Every year the peat layer grows by around 1 millimeter, so that a peat layer of around 10 m and more has formed since the end of the last ice age 15,000 years ago.
