The Vomperbach rises in the Karwendel mountain range, close to the source of the Isar. It flows first from West to East. Above the village of Vomp - which it passes through - it changes its course and flows from North to South into the Inn River. It has a length of 17 kilometers.

Water quality

In the headwaters the brook is covered by detrital and almost invisible. This point is called "Vomper Loch" (=Hole of Vomp). Then it flows through a narrow ravine to Vomp. From the ravine to the mouth the water quality remains constant Grade A and provides the village with drinking water.
