glaciation. The Starnberger See, Ammersee, Wörthsee and Pilsensee are finger lakes which were created by deglaciation. Furthermore, the glacial period lead to a moraine landscape. This is also the case for Kloster Andechs which lies on a ridge. The presence of river Würm leads to the formation of further geological landscapes. This includes formation of lowland moors and valleys at Leustetten and Mühltal, respectively.
