course
The Kirchbach arises from several trenches in the area of the Lechneralm east of the Hochsalwand . After initially heading eastwards to the Zugberg , the stream makes a bend to the north. After the Zwieselbach flows into it, it makes another bend to the east into the municipality of Brannenburg . There it turns north again until it flows into the Inn at Raubling . Shortly before the confluence, the Moosbach branches off to the left , which after a long tributary only flows into the Inn in Rosenheim.
The lower course of the Kirchbach flows through the Inntal Süd landscape protection area (LSG-00595.01) between the Inn and the Kufstein – Rosenheim railway line that accompanies it .
