Over a length of 26 kilometres, the Maltsch marks the border between Austria and the Czech Republic. It is a remarkable body of water in many respects. Its water flows northwards to the Elbe and further into the North Sea and not, as is the case with most rivers in Upper Austria, into the Danube and the Black Sea
The Maltsch, a river bordering the Czech Republic, has a number of special natural features. River pearl mussels and otters, the rare marsh grasshopper and several endangered butterfly and dragonfly species live here. The common snipe and corncrake breed in the wet meadows and floodplains. Black grouse, red-backed shrike, black woodpecker and other species listed in the Birds Directive also find a habitat here - on the Green Belt.
