The Löntsch is a stream in the Swiss canton of Glarus .

It drains the Klöntalersee and flows into the Linth near Netstal . The course of the stream through the narrow valley reaches a climax with the deep Löntschtobel, which can be observed from the (upper) Löntschtobel bridge. An important source river of the Löntsch is the Chlü , which is the largest source river of the Klöntalersee.

The power plant on the Löntsch was built from 1903 to 1908 . At that time, a modest, drivable dam wall was built over the Klöntal rockslide, which the Löntsch has to cross.
