Abstract
The foreland basins of the European Alps were repeatedly covered by major piedmont glaciers during Quaternary glacial maxima. The Salzach Glacier was the easternmost of a series of large Pleistocene piedmont glaciers entering the North Alpine Foreland through major Alpine valleys. It covered an area of more than 1000 km2 during at least four glacial maxima. The slightly elevated molasse bedrock provides a high potential for preservation of glacial landforms and offers an ideal setting to explore the erosional and depositional dynamics of a major glacier piedmont lobe. This field excursion guide leads to some selected key sites representing deposits of glacial advance, relative equilibrium, and ice lobe collapse.
