Inn gap or Inn water gap
I found some references to Danube water gap and Vornbach water gap by googling "Vornbach water gap" and here I also found references to gap: https://dict.leo.org/forum/viewUnsolvedquery.php?idThread=32...

: Der berühmte Donaudurchbruch wird auf Englisch auch „Danube gorge“ genannt, aber den Bilder nach zu urteilen, passt das bei diesem Inndurchbruch weniger. „Gap“/„water gap“ passt wohl am besten.

Danke, Thomas! Ja den "Danube gorge" habe ich auch gesehen, aber mich auch dagegen entschieden, weil es nicht passt.

Thanks, Phil! You might be right. But it also seems to have been used in the States: Delaware Water Gap.

the Inn narrows
after some thought, 'narrows' seems nicer than strait, since we are not completely sure whether it is like a canal or more a bay, but is definitely a narrower part of the river.

Reference:
Durchbruch = a geological river feature
I think Ramey's first suggestion (as picked up by Mack) is spot on: Vornbacher Enge (Vornbach narrow). Take a look at Wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_gap
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durchbruchstal
I can't tell whether it's actually part of the reserve or just close by (north of Schäring).
