Lower Bavarian Upland

To the north it is bordered by the Gäuboden region and the Bavarian Forest; to the south by Upper Bavaria, to the east by the Lower Inn Valley and to the west by the Franconian Jura (Fränkische Alb).

In the western part of the Lower Bavarian Hills lies the Hallertau, the world's largest hop-growing region.

[2] It belongs to two of officially defined natural regions in Germany: the eponymous Lower Bavarian hills and the Isar-Inn Gravel Beds (Isar-Inn-Schotterplatten) and is sub-divided into the Danube-Isar Hills (Donau-Isar-Hügelland) and the Isar-Inn Upland (Isar-Inn-Hügelland) with the River Isar as the boundary.

The biggest cities in the lower Bavarian Upland are Ingolstadt, Landshut and Freising.

The Lower Bavarian Spa Triangle (Niederbayerisches Bäderdreieck) is of particularly importance for tourism.
