The Kalser Tal begins at the confluence of the Kalserbach in the Isel below the hamlet of Unterpeischlach . It then runs in a north-north-east direction, where from south to north are the Unter- and Oberpeischlach, Staniska, Haslach and Arnig fractions . At Lesach, the Kalser Valley finally opens into a basin in which the Lesach , Lana, Ködnitz , Großdorf , Glor and Burg districts are located. At the hamlet of Taurer, the Kals valley ends and merges into the Kals village valley .

The Teischnitz Valley and the Ködnitz Valley are side valleys of the Kals Valley.
