Wildmoos is worth a visit at any time of year. It's always surprising how few people go there—you rarely meet anyone even a few hundred meters from Jexhof. A very special atmosphere arises when you walk there just before sunset.

The Starzelbach is formed from several spring streams in the Bernrieder Forest in the municipality of Schöngeising at the outermost terminal moraine of the Würm Ice Age Isar-Loisach glacier. In the immediate vicinity of the source area stands the 144-meter-high Schöngeising radio tower, a landmark that can be seen from far away.
