Due to the increased risk of forest fires, control planes were flying over the Ebersberg and Erding districts for the first time this year on Wednesday afternoon. The government of Upper Bavaria has also ordered aerial observation for the districts of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Miesbach, Mühldorf am Inn, Rosenheim and Traunstein. This is done in coordination with the Office for Food, Agriculture and Forestry Ingolstadt-Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm. The planes start from the bases in Erding, Ohlstadt and Mühldorf. Due to increasing drought, the general forest fire risk index for parts in eastern and southern Upper Bavaria currently shows the second highest forest fire risk level, four. Forests on light, sandy sites with little vegetation, sunny forest clearings and forest edges are particularly at risk, including parts of the Ebersberg forest. You are asked not to light a fire or open flame within a hundred meters of forests.
