Munich Maps and Orientation

(Munich, Bavaria, Germany)



Standing on the far southern side of Germany, in the Upper Bravia region, Munich is the third biggest city in the country and home to a population of more than one million inhabitants. Sited alongside the River Isar, Munich stands on the northern side of the beautiful Bavarian Alps, which are just 50 km / 31 miles from the city and offers a range of recreational activities, including hiking trails.

Munich is a particularly attractive city and stands within the Northern Alpine Foreland region, enjoying a fairly elevated setting. Much of southern Munich is dominated by a hilly landscape, an area formed by glacial deposits.
