The Ahlersbach rises at an altitude of about 478 m above sea level. NHN a good kilometer west of the Sinntaler district Weiperz in a meadow on the northern edge of a mixed forest.

It now changes its direction to the north-west and then runs through grassland on the north-east edge of the village that is part of Schlüchtern and named after him . A little further down the stream it turns sharply to the north-northeast and is then strengthened by the Lietebach near a small pond west of the vineyard . The Ahlersbach now runs first through forest and then turning more and more to the north through grassland.
About a kilometer later it reaches the southern edge of the Schlüchtern district of Herolz . It passes the southern part of the village and finally flows out at an altitude of about 227 m above sea level. NHN in the left main arm of the Kinzig divided there .
