The Lanser Bach flows from Lans alongside the Paschberg to Aldrans and merges with the Inn after 17 km (11 mi) at the eastern edge of Innsbruck. Below Castle Ambras the Aldranser Bach joins the Lanser Bach. The Lanser Bach has a meander-like course. Before 2005, it and fed the Mühlsee with fresh water.

The river supplies Aldrans with drinking water by a service reservoir in the village. Normally the waters are relatively calm. There are some slippery riverside sections though.

Alongside the river there is a hiking trail called Spergereggweg until Aldrans and further to Innsbruck through a forest.
