The Gasteiner Ache flows through the Gastein Valley , located in the state of Salzburg in Austria , over a length of 40 km . The three main towns of the Gastein Valley, Bad Gastein ( 1002  m ), Bad Hofgastein ( 858  m ) and Dorfgastein ( 830  m ) are located on the Gasteiner Ache .

It rises from the Schlapperebenkees glacier on the Weinflaschenkogel ( 3008  m above sea level ) and some springs in the Schlapperebenkar , at an altitude of around 2400  m . Its upper course is also called Naßfelder Ache and runs through the Naßfeldertal , in which Sportgastein is also located. In the vicinity of Böckstein , the river forms the well-known Kessel, Bären and Schleierfall waterfalls , as well as the Gastein waterfalls with a height of 85 and 63 m, located directly in the center of Bad Gastein . In the area of ​​Bad Gastein between the mouth of the Palfnerbach and the village of Bad Bruck , the Gasteiner Ache flows in a gorge. At the end of the valley lies the Klammpass , a gorge that breaks through the steep step into the Salzach Valley, which is significantly lower. At Lend , the Gastein Valley flows into the Salzach Valley and the Gasteiner Ache as a feeder into the Salzach.

At the Bad Hofgastein gauge, the mean flow rate of the Gasteiner Ache is 10.3 m³ / s. It is developed by the Gasteiner Tal power plant group of Salzburg AG .
