The Karwendel stretches from west to east in four mountain chains between the Seefelder Sattel and Lake Achensee. Typical for this region are the steep scree cones beneath the limestone rock faces. The southernmost chain is the Innsbrucker Nordkette with the Hafelekarspitze (2334 m). Further well-known peaks are the Betterlwurfspitze (2726 m) and the Mondscheinspitze (2106 m). The highest peak is the Birkkarspitze (2749 m). The Alpenpark Karwendel with an area of 920 m2 which is located here, is one of the biggest protected areas in the Eastern Alps.
