Landscape of hills and lakes created by glacier ice The maximum glacial advance of the last ice age is aptly called the "Seeoner Stadium" in the Chiemsee region: This advance left behind a particularly fascinating landscape with moraines, ice edge terraces, and dead ice lakes in the Seeoner lake plateau about 18,000 years ago.

Circular hike through gentle moraine landscape Around the 14 m deep Obinger See, there is a sculpture trail with over 20 objects by contemporary sculptors from the region. If you move quickly, it takes less than an hour – but if you take a closer look at the original artworks and the information boards along the way and take breaks for external and internal refreshment, you can easily spend several relaxed hours at Obinger See without getting bored. The lake is located outside the lively relief of the Würm ice-age young moraines that surround the Chiemsee, the Eggstätter and Seeoner lakes; it lies in the transition area to a landscape with gentle hills – these are also moraines, but those deposited by the farther-reaching glaciers of earlier ice ages, especially those of the Mindel (about 700,000 years ago) and Riss ice ages (about 300,000 years ago). Due to their greater age, they are already more eroded and the landscape is accordingly flatter. This tour leads through an area that was just barely not reached by the Würm ice-age glaciation. However, the view of the very nearby ice fronts of the Chiemsee glacier in the south and of the Chiemsee glacier in the west would certainly have been ours 18,000 years ago...
