The Laudach in summer.

The Laudach is a river in the Austrian state of Upper Austria . It is around 22 km long, making it the largest tributary of the Alm .

The larger Äußere Laudach is the outflow of the Laud axis in Gmunden . From the south, it passes through the municipal areas of St. Konrad , Gschwandt , Kirchham and Vorchdorf .

The tributary, the Innere Laudach (or Dürre Laudach ), has its source in the municipality of Kirchham . It is formed from the two source rivers Platzbach and Edlbach . They draw their water from the Wiesberg, Hacklberg and Feichtenberg hills, which are shaped like a horseshoe around the Kirchham district of Hagenmühle. Also coming from the south, this right tributary flows north of the center of Vorchdorf into the (outer) Laudach.

The Laudach flows into the Alm about 5 km after the confluence of the Outer and Inner Laudach rivers, interrupted several times by small weirs , in the southern municipality of Bad Wimsbach .

There are a number of artificially created ponds along the Laudach.
