geography

course

The Grumbach rises in the Vordertaunus at an altitude of about 215  m above sea level. NHN in the Oberer Grummbach corridor in a meadow southeast of the Königstein district of Mammolshain . Its source is to the east of an orchard on a south-facing slope, mostly overgrown with older trees in rows. Almost two hundred meters south-southeast of the source is a sandstone and wood wayside cross from 1764 on the Alter Postkutschenweg .

The stream initially flows almost half a kilometer in an east-southeast direction through the meadows, first the Oberer Grumbach corridor and then through the Untere Grummbach corridor , then passes the border from the Hochtaunuskreis to the Main-Taunus-Kreis and enters the Schwalbach area at the Taunus .

He now runs through the small Sauerborn forest and feeds a fish pond of the Schwalbach anglers' club . The stream then leaves the forest and passes under the L 3015 . A little to the north of it is the stele sculpture of El Lissitzky-Allee by the Darmstadt artist Gerhard Schweizer. Accompanied by thick wood, the stream now runs through the grassland of the Wasserlach between the large Schwalbach settlement Limesstadt in the south and a forest cemetery with a cemetery chapel in the north . On the north-eastern edge of the cemetery is a replica of a Roman four-god stone found in 1839 , which was once the foundation of a Jupiter column . A little further down the river by the corridor Die Grumbach, there was a Roman estate on the right in these times .

At the Flur In der Grumwies the brook bends almost at right angles to the east-northeast and finally flows at 153  m from the right into the Sauerbornsbach, which is finally approaching from the north-northwest .
