geography
course
The Hundsangen Bach rises in an industrial zone in the western part of Hundsangen . It initially runs in a south-easterly direction above ground through the village, dips into the underground not far from the Wiesenstrasse and only appears to the east, outside the village, again on the surface. It now turns to the northeast and is fed a little further downstream on its left by a stream coming from the northwest. It now flows first through an alluvial forest , later through a high forest and finally joins directly on the border with Hesse near the Pletschmühle with the Horbach to the Lohbach coming from the north .
