Below the Ödseen the Hintere and Vordere Springbach flow from the left.

The catchment area of  the Straneggbach measures 38 km², the highest point in it is the Great Priel at 2515  m above sea level. A.

The Straneggbach is relatively natural, quickly flowing and very structured. It has flat banks and numerous, partly wooded gravel banks . It has a pendulous, slightly meandering  course in sections . In the lower reaches it is up to 6 m wide. Over long stretches it has a wood accompanying the bank. The tree layer is up to 20 m high and consists mainly of common ash , red beech , alder and common spruce . Rare, highly specialized species of grasshoppers, such as the gravel bank grasshopper and the Turk's thorn insect, can be found on the dynamic gravel banks .
