List of mountains of Bavaria

This list of mountains in Bavaria shows a selection of high and/or well-known mountains in the German state of Bavaria.

Highest mountains by province

In the following table, the highest mountain in each of the 7 Bavarian provinces is listed.

By clicking on the word "list" in the mountain list column you will be taken to the list of mountains in that region (sometimes including those lying outside of Bavaria). The table is initially sorted by height, but may be rearranged by clicking the symbols at the head of each column.

Highest mountains and hills of the regions of Bavaria

In the following table the highest mountain or hill in each of the regions of Bavaria is shown. A ‘region’ is taken to be a major natural region unit.

In the column Range/Region, high or extensive mountain ranges are shown in bold, lower or smaller hills and regions, which do not have a local high point or basin, but whose (island-like) high points have prominence are shown in italics. By clicking the word “list” in the mountain lists column, you will be taken to a list of other mountains or hills in the respective region (some of which may included those outside of Bavaria).

Multiple listings of the same mountain are possible because, e.g., the Zugspitze is simultaneously the highest (Bavarian) mountain of the Alps, Bavarian Alps, Northern Limestone Alps and the Wetterstein Mountains.

The table, which is initially sorted by height, may be rearranged by clicking on the symbols at the head of each column.
