The Lohbach originates from a spring at the eastern edge of the Kranebitter ravine. It runs in eastern direction along Hötting-West and Lohbachsiedlung, further to Vögelebichl. At the street Fischerhäuslweg its name changes to Gießenbach and it runs under ground until it discharges into the Inn. A part of the river branches off and flows into the airport area. The length of the Lohbach is 4.5 kilometres (2.8 mi).
