The nature reserve "Kupferbachtal bei Unterlaus" is a flat and hillside spring moor that extends over the communities of Feldkirchen-Westerham ( district of Rosenheim ) and Aying ( district of Munich ) as well as the market Glonn ( district of Ebersberg ). The Kupferbachtal was created at the end of the last ice age when the meltwater from the Inn-Chiemsee glacier and partly from the Isar glacier could not drain into the Rosenheim basin, which was still filled with ice, and thus after a long period of standstill (so-called Ellkofener stage) at the edge of the glacier Flowed northeast in the direction of Wasserburg or Gars towards the Inn ("Umfließungsrinne"). The bypass channel was formed and used in the period from approx. 18,000 years to approx. 16,500 to 17,000 years ago. Today the area is characterized by several strong calcareous springs.
