The Fallbach is a small river in Tyrol, Austria, a tributary of the Inn. The Fallbach lies in full in Innsbruck's city area. It should not be confused with the similarly-named river, a left Inn tributary in Baumkirchen.
The Fallbach has a length of 7 km (4.3 mi). It originates near the Gramart area on the Hungerburg at 900 metres (3,000 ft) above sea level. It runs straight in southern direction to St. Nikolaus where it merges with the Inn.
The water of the river is collected in two artificial reservoirs and supplies the areas of St. Nikolaus and Höhenstraße with drinking water. This often causes locally low water levels in the Fallbach.
