Petting is a municipality in the district Traunstein, Bavaria, Germany. It is located on the shore of the Waginger See, a diluvial lake.

The first mention of the municipality was in 1048 with the name Pettinga, however it is possible that the settlement already existed at the time of the Roman empire. In 1180 it came into the ownership of the monastery St. Zeno.
