Alpine foreland: Description

Like the foothills of the Alps, the foothills of the Alps are separated by the high Alps and are divided into the west and north of Vorarlberg and parts of Salzburg, Upper and Lower Austria. The Rhine, Lake Constance and the Salzach are of major importance from a topographical point of view.
