The sources of the Auerbach in a forest at the foot of the Wildalpjoch

The Auerbach is an approximately 16 km long left tributary of the Inn in the Alps in Germany .

Name interpretation

The name Auerbach goes back to the Old High German "Urpah", is mentioned for the first time in a deed of donation from 980 and is the origin of the name for the towns of Ober- and Niederaudorf on the Auerbach.

Mouth of the Auerbach into the Inn near Oberaudorf - Reisach . View down the inn to the north-northeast.

The Auerbach rises from two main and several secondary sources in a forest on the southern slope of the Wildalpjoch at an altitude of around 1400  m above sea level. NN , then flows in the upper reaches as a small stream over alpine meadows southwards to Sudelfeld , past the Arzmoos and from there south-eastwards, later eastwards through the wide valley between Wildbarren in the north and Brünnstein in the south. In the middle course from Sudelfeld to Bad Trissl, the mountain stream is characterized by numerous small waterfalls and pools . At an altitude of about 800  m above sea level. NN it falls down the well-known Tatzelwurm waterfall in a narrow point . Via several districts of Oberaudorf (Rechenau, Seebach, Wall, Hummelei, Agg) the brook reaches its lower reaches in the district of Bad Trissl, which is straightened and secured against flooding with many sleepers and lateral barriers. A biotope was created behind the crossing under State Road 2089 . After a total of 16 km it flows into the Inn, which flows northwards here .
