geography

course

The source area of ​​the Irschenbach lies on the southern flank of the Gallner , about 600 meters south of its lowest peak, Blumerberg ( 682  m above sea level ) in the area of ​​some small ponds on the edge of the field at a little over 500  m above sea level. NHN . After 600 meters south, the stream reaches the village of Irschenbach of the same name . Here it joins the Gallnerbach , also coming from the left , which also flows in from Blumerberg and is of a similar length. After a further 1.3 kilometers, first just south-east and then again south, in Thanholz it takes on the Blumergraben from the right , only a good 300 meters further south in Altvielreich then from the same side also the Schneckenberger Wasser . The confluence from the right into the Menach is about 200 meters east of Siegenfurt, it reaches it after a further 760 meters in a south-easterly direction, about 2.9 km below its origin.

Catchment area

It covers about 4.8 km². The most prominent watershed is in the north, it runs in front of the catchment area of ​​the Kinsach tributary Kandelbach from west to east over the three peaks Gallner Berg ( 710  m above sea level ), Kühleite ( 704  m above sea level ) and Blumerberg ( 682  m above sea level). NHN ) of Gallner. On the Blumerberg, the watershed bends south and runs very steeply at first, then slowly descending approximately south to the mouth. Outside, the immediate catchment area borders the upward Menach, on the next part of the border from the mouth about northwest to the Schneckenberg ( 526  m above sea level ) then that of the downward Menach. Beyond the western scabbard from there back to the summit of the Gallner Berg, the Kinsach runs roughly parallel to the Irschenbach southwards.

The forest dominates the high parts of the landscape on the Gallner and its southern slope, on the Schneckenberg and in a wide bar in the southeast in front of the influence of the Irschenbach in the Menach-Aue. In between, in the middle layers, the open corridor dominates the landscape. The larger part of the drained area is - like the entire Irschenbachlauf - in the municipality of Haibach, the smaller in the northwest with its hamlet Dammersdorf on that of Haselbach .
