Fließ is a small town, or municipality, located in Austria. It's found in the Tyrol region, specifically in the Landeck area. Fließ is about 5 kilometers (3 miles) south of the town of Landeck. It sits near the upper part of the Inn River valley.

This area has been home to people for a very long time. It was already settled during the time of the Romans. The village of Fließ itself was started around the 6th century. In 1933, a big fire damaged much of the town. After the fire, Fließ was rebuilt to be more spacious. Today, a main way people in Fließ make money is through tourism, especially skiing.
