The North German Plain south of the North and Baltic Sea coast and its offshore islands is a Nordic formed by glaciations on the western foothills of the eastern plains. By many lakes, hilly Geest and clay plates, which are interspersed in the north-west of heaths and moors, and by broad, moist lowlands and river valleys, it is indented. Fertile Lössgefilde (clay belts) are on the foot of the Central Upland, the favorable climate in the lowlands south bays engage deeply The Lower Rhine, the Westphalian and the Saxon-Thuringian bay. In the north of the lowlands, the Federal Republic of proportion to the marshes of the North Sea coast, which extend to the edge of the geest.

The Central Upland in which several geological-tectonic zones differ is of great diversity. To her including the Rhenish Massif with the main parts of Hunsrück (816 m), Eifel with High Venn (747 m) are, Taunus (879 m), Westerwald, Bergisch Land and Sauerland Rothaargebirge (843 m), the Hessian Mountains (950 m ), the Weser and Leine Mountains and east of it, the Harz Mountains, which singles out the Middle resin up to 1,142 m altitude; also to be expected, the Bavarian forest (1,456 m), the Upper Palatinate Forest (901 m), the Fichtel Mountain (1,051 m ), the Franconian Forest (795 m), the Thuringian Forest (983 m) and the Ore Mountains (1,215 m).

About Tertiary sediments here are more or less powerful moraines and gravel, which in some cases well into the foothills had penetrated Pleistocene alpine glaciers and their meltwater were deposited. Given in the northern fringes is also loess, a gravel blown out and deposited aeolian, lime and quartz-rich fine particles.

In a particularly skilled in the Allgäu Alps matt rich zone sandstones that are assigned to follow the Northern Limestone Alps Chains, including those situated between the Bregenzerwald and the Lech Allgäu High Alps (Hochfrottspitze 2649 m, Mädelegabel 2645 m, Hochvogel 2,592 m), the so-called Tyrolean Limestone Alps between high pass and Tiroler Ache with the wild weather Stone Mountain (Zugspitze 2.962 m - also the highest mountain the Federal Republic), the Karwendel Mountains (Eastern Karwendel peak 2537 m), and picturesque mountain lakes (Walchensee, Eibsee) and finally spectacular parts of the Salzburg Limestone Alps in Berchtesgaden (Watzmann 2,713 m with the Königssee).
