course

The Fahrenbach rises in a forest area northwest of the Kellerberg ( 356  m above sea level ) near Rosbach vor der Höhe - Ober-Rosbach , south of the Rosenkranzweg . Nearby there is also the thick oak , a 300 year old hat tree . The Fahrenbach first flows in a southerly direction west past the Kellerberg and the Fuchsbau , then it flows around the Salzberg ( 341  m above sea level ). There it also flows past a quartzite movement . Shortly before crossing under the European route 451 , it changes its course to the northeast. In the vicinity of a sports field he reaches the urban area of ​​Ober-Rosbach. It then crosses under the federal highway 455 and finally flows into Rosbach, near the Junkerwiese , in the stream of the same name.
