Coordinates: 47 ° 18 ' N , 11 ° 31' E
The northern low mountain range is the valley terrace of the Inn Valley near Innsbruck and Hall in Tirol . It represents that part of the Tyrolean low mountain range which lies at the foot of the Karwendel Mountains .
geography
The northern low mountain range is the shoulder of the slope of the Nordkette and Gleirsch-Halltal -kette , between Martinswand to the west and Vompertal to the east. With a width of around 1–2 kilometers, it extends around 25 kilometers in length at an altitude of 700 to 900 m, and thus around 100 to 300 m above the Inn Valley.
It belongs to the Central Inn Valley region , it can also be counted as part of the Lower Inn Valley when you see its border with the Upper Inn Valley at the Melach estuary near Zirl.
To the west is the Seefeld plateau , which breaks off between Telfs and Zirl in steep rock faces to the Inn Valley. The Vomperberg follows to the east . Opposite in the Inn valley is the somewhat higher southern low mountain range .
The Innsbruck districts of Kranebitten , Allerheiligenhöfe , Sadrach and Hötting (each at the foot), Hungerburg , in a slight flattening of the terraces of Mühlau and Arzl are located in and on the northern low mountain range . and the villages Rum , Thaur and Absam (and there in the Inn valley below Hall and Mils ), as well as Gnadenwald , Eggen and Umlberg , and below Baumkirchen , Fritzens , Terfens , Vomperbach and Vomp (each at the foot of the Inn). The higher-lying eastern section, from the Weißenbach ( Halltal ), is specifically called Gnadenwalder Terrasse and from the Stanser Klamm ( Larchtal ) also called Vomperberg .
The communities around Hall form the planning association Hall und Umgebung , a development region for the regional spatial planning of the state. The places in the central northern low mountain range operate as MARTHA villages .
