The Langenbach rises in Wasgau at an altitude of 241  m above sea level. NN in a forest meadow in the Finstertal . It initially flows in a south-easterly direction and forms a small pond a good fifty meters from the source. A good hundred meters further down the stream, it changes direction to the south. At Waldgewann Im Bottental, it accumulates to a small forest lake. It now runs through the Gewann Großwiesen between the Trögenberg ( 323.2  m above sea level ) on its right and the Winterberg ( 447.8  m above sea level ) on the left, then flows along the eastern slope of the Wölmersberg and then reaches the Outskirts of Erfweiler .
