Living in Icking: Quiet living in the Isar valley with quick access to Munich
Picturesque landscape, absolute tranquillity
Icking is located to the north of Wolfratshausen in the Isar Valley and, according to the official municipal map, borders Wolfratshausen, Münsing, Berg, Schäftlarn and Egling. This location is very strong from a residential perspective because it opens up both the south of Munich and the area towards Lake Starnberg and the Isar Valley. At the same time, Icking itself remains clearly rural and residential.
Neighboring towns and important points of reference
Schäftlarn, Wolfratshausen, Berg and the nearby Isar Valley play a particularly important role in everyday life. The municipality is functionally closely linked to these neighboring areas via the Icking train station, the S7 and bus lines 973 and 974. The MVV orientation map for Icking shows not only the S7 but also lines 973 and 974 as well as the proximity to the Isar floodplains between Schäftlarn and Bad Tölz.
Rental offers in Icking
From a residential perspective, Icking is particularly interesting for people who want to live close to nature and in high quality, but not in seclusion. Icking is a quiet location, with many kindergartens and two grammar schools. This makes it a residential location that is less about urban density and more about residential tranquillity, proximity to education and quality of location.
Added to this is the established structure of the municipality. According to the official municipal website, Icking consists of eleven districts: Alpe, Attenhausen, Dorfen, Holzen, Icking, Irschenhausen, Meilenberg, Schlederloh, Schützenried, Wadlhausen and Walchstadt. This is important for prospective tenants and buyers because living conditions within the municipality can vary considerably - from close to the railroad and everyday life to more rural and secluded.
Typical resident groups are families, commuters heading for Munich, households looking for a quieter place to live, people with a strong connection to nature and leisure activities, and those looking to live in the Isar Valley but want to remain flexible in their everyday lives. This target group description is an editorial derivation from location, schools, childcare and transport links.

Icking is particularly attractive for families because the municipality is very well positioned in comparison to its size.

Gastronomy
According to the municipality, the Isar Valley Association has been committed to preserving the scenic beauty of the Isar Valley for over 120 years and explicitly describes the area as a recreational area of particular uniqueness. This is valuable from a residential perspective, because Icking thus has a lasting strong connection to the landscape and local recreation.
Leisure
There are various leisure activities on offer in Icking: Tennis, horse riding, winter sports and hiking, while the MVV plan makes the direct connection to the Isar floodplains visible. This mix is ideal because it remains close to everyday life and is also stable in the long term.
