The Würm is a river in Bavaria, Germany, right tributary of the Amper. The length of the river is 39.8 kilometres (24.7 mi), or 76.3 kilometres (47.4 mi) including the Steinbach, the main feed of Lake Starnberg. It drains the overflow from Lake Starnberg and flows swiftly through the villages of Gauting, Krailling, Planegg, Gräfelfing and Lochham as well as part of Munich (in the borough of Pasing) before joining, near Dachau, the Amper, which soon afterwards flows into the Isar and eventually flowing into the Danube. Although the Würm is not a very large river, it is well known as it gave its name to the Würm glaciation.

[de] Würm (Amper)

Die Würm ist ein 39,5 Kilometer langer Fluss in Bayern. Sie ist der einzige Abfluss des Starnberger Sees, der bis 1962 Würmsee hieß, und beginnt an dessen Nordostende bei Starnberg. Der Hauptarm mündet bei Dachau in die Amper, die dann bei Moosburg in die Isar mündet. Die Würm speist aber auch das Nordmünchner Kanalsystem, über das Teile des Würmwassers in die Isar und die Moosach gelangen.
