The Navisbach is a small river that flows through the Navistal (Navis valley), in Tyrol, Austria. Its route follows western direction until north of Steinach am Brenner where it merges with the Sill river. The Navisbach proper is 7.2 km (4.5 mi) long,[1] including its source river Klammbach it is about 13 km long.

The brook is one of the cleanest waters in Tyrol and has Grade A- quality. It provides the village of Navis (in the center of the valley) with drinking water.

Normally the brook is a rapid-river but the speed of the water is less dangerous and quick compared to others. Although it should not be underestimated. He got already a dangerous spate and threatened the village.
