Vomperbach
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vomperbach or Vomper Brook | |
---|---|
Origin | Karwendel mountain range |
Mouth | Inn River near Vomp |
Basin countries | Tyrol |
Length | 15 km |
The Vomperbach rises in the Karwendel mountain range and 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 15 kilometers.
[edit] 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.
[edit] Dangers
One should not be deceived by the detrital. Below is water and the whole mass can quickly get into slippering. The water is rapid until the mouth as a typical rapid-river brook.
