The Bischbach , also called Mühlbach , is an almost 2.5 km long left and northeastern tributary of the Main on the Marktheidenfelder Platte on the edge of the Spessart Nature Park in Bavaria .

course

The stream, the upper valley of which is called the Hübschberggraben , rises northeast of the Triefenstein district of Homburg between the Lerchenberg and Hübschenberg plateau projections. On its course towards the south-west, it is closely followed by a road that descends from the county road MSP 42 through its valley to the state road 2299 in the Main valley. On the first half of its run it moves in open fields, often under vineyards on the left slope. Then it flows through Homburg, which lies in a small valley spider; It flows past the Museum Papiermühle Homburg and then continues largely piped. It finally crosses under the State Road 2299 and the Main Cycle Path before it flows into the Main.
