Run and landscape

The diving stream rises in the southeastern Wechsel area , west of Mönichkirchen on the saddle of the Mönichkirchner Schwaig  ( 1174  m above sea level ) at about 1140  m , south of the Kogel  ( 1289  m above sea level ). The brook then flows southeast past Mönichkirchen to diving , and forms the Lower Austrian-Styrian border. Between the Lower Austrian district of diving and Styrian diving, he switches entirely to Styrian.

It is now increasingly gaining southerly direction, and then forms the boundary between Pinggau and Schäffern . At Tanzegg it reaches the Pinkatal, and at Lafnitzdorf , a good 2 kilometers southeast of Pinggau, flows into the Pinka from the left (which is also called Pinggaubach here).

Its more important feeders are the Pfeffergraben (Bäckergraben) directly from Mönichkirchen and the Spitalbach , which rises southeast of Mönichkirchen am Windbichl and flows in at the toboggan mill below Anger .

The Tauchenbach applies to the exchange pass as a possible limit of the exchange area for hunchback world respectively the Bernsteiner mountains .
