The Gattergebirge is one to about 618 m above sea level. NHN high and almost 50 km² hilly landscape in Upper Bavaria . It is located near Sankt Wolfgang in the districts of Erding and Mühldorf am Inn .
The terms Gattergebirge and Gatterberg (e) are sometimes used colloquially as a synonym. With height differences of a maximum of around 160 meters, the landscape is not a mountain range , but rather a pronounced hilly landscape of terminal moraines , which the municipality of Sankt Wolfgang calls "the Tuscany of Upper Bavaria" .
geography
location
The Gattergebirge lies in the district of Erding for the most part in the municipality of Sankt Wolfgang with the formerly independent municipalities Gatterberg , Jeßling and Schönbrunn, which have been incorporated into Sankt Wolfgang since 1971 , as well as with the areas of the former municipalities of Schiltern and Schwindkirchen in the urban area of Dorfen and to a small extent in the district of Mühldorf am Inn with the communities of Obertaufkirchen and Kirchdorf . (see the section Localities and municipalities )
In the north and west of the Gattergebirge lies the Goldach valley and in the east and south the Ornaubach valley. The area is criss-crossed by numerous ravine-like valleys forming streams such as the Rimbach . The foot height is around 450 to 500 m .
Natural allocation
The Gattergebirge belongs in the natural spatial main unit group Isar-Inn-Schotterplatten (No. 05), in the main unit Isen-Sempt-Hügelland (052) and in the subunit Isener Hügelland (052.1) to the old moraine hill country of the natural area Southern Isener Hügelland (052.11). Its northern foothills extend into the high terrace hill country of the natural area of the northern Isen hill country (052.10).
Highest peak
The summit of the highest and at the same time nameless elevation of the Gattergebirge is about 618 m high. It is located a few meters north of the district road ED21 / MÜ29 between the Sankt Wolfganger Bauernschaften and Weilern Frühmannstett in the north, Schedenberg in the northeast, Haidhäusl in the east-southeast, Pürstling in the southeast, Klaus in the southeast, Baier in the southwest and Herrnwies in the west. The district road, coming from the direction of Sankt Wolfgang, leads past the elevation to Leimgruben , a district of the Kirchdorf community . Around 280 m east-northeast of the summit, beyond a transmission tower, there is a trigonometric point at a height of 616.1 m . From some parts of the elevation one can overlook the Inn Valley and the Chiemgau .
Localities and communities
The communities Sankt Wolfgang, Schwindkirchen and Oberornau ( belonging to Obertaufkirchen ) have a share in the Gattergebirge . The largest town in the Gattergebirge is Schönbrunn , which belongs to Sankt Wolfgang . The municipality of Dorfen and the former municipality of Fürholzen, which belongs to Kirchdorf , also have a share . The hamlets and small communities in the Gattergebirge include Zettl, Jeßling, Burdberg, Hof- und Grüngiebing , Gmain and Mitterrimbach .

traffic
The Gattergebirge is cut through by the district roads ED 21 / MÜ 29 (Sankt Wolfgang – Schönbrunn) and ED 22 (ED 21– Armstorf ). The federal highway 15 runs directly adjacent to the west, the B 12 a little further away in a southerly direction. The Dorfen-Heldenstein section of the federal motorway 94 , which has been granted a building permit, will touch the northern edge of the Gattergebirge in the southern route around Schwindkirchen. The only train stations in the vicinity are in Dorfen and Schwindegg .
Winter sports and tourism
Although the landscape of the Gattergebirge would be suitable for some winter sports, it is not developed in this regard. There is only a ski lift to the south-east of Schönbrunn, which is used irregularly.
The range of accommodation is relatively small. There are pensions and accommodation in Hinterberg, Forach (both in Schiltern ) and Baier ( Jeßling ).
For the sights see the articles on Schönbrunn , Hof- and Grüngiebing as well as the list of architectural monuments in Sankt Wolfgang (Upper Bavaria) (in the Gattergebirge are Grub, Hilgen am Weg, Kiener, Pürstling a. Parstling, Rudorfer, Schönbrunn, Wernhardsberg, Wies) referenced.
