Breitenbach

The Breitenbach rises southwest of Breitenbuch . It runs along the Limes to the south and flows through two ponds . It is reinforced by Rotklingenbrunnen and Streitbrunnen and reaches the village of the same name Breitenbach . There the Dörnbach flows to him. At about 7.1 km, the Breitenbach is the longer source stream.

Teufelsbach

The approximately 5.9 km long Teufelsbach rises in Baden-Württemberg south of Schloßau . It runs north through the Devil's Blade . North of Ernsttal it joins the Breitenbach to the Gabelbach.

After the confluence of the source streams, the Gabelbach runs through Ottorfszell to Kirchzell . This is where its largest tributary, the Waldbach, flows from the left. North of Buch it flows into the mud, which is only about 13 km long .
