geography
course
The Monbach arises from several meadow streams in a flat hollow of the plateau-like Schlehengau . It takes its name from the confluence of the small land ditch with the Maisgraben , its actual upper course, about two kilometers south of the center of Neuhausen in the Enzkreis . The sources of all these brooks lie at heights between 515 and 540 m above sea level. NHN on a south-east curve between - in the east - the Büchelberg near Weil der Stadt -Münklingen and - in the south - the forest between Bad Liebenzell -Unterhaugstett and Althengstett - Ottenbronn .
After its water flow through the to about 492 m above sea level. NHN has almost doubled the Haugstetter Bach flowing into it, the brook digs its steep, wooded valley into the plateau in a north-westerly direction . About one kilometer from the estuary it turns abruptly to the southwest. The stream then flows out to about 309 m above sea level. NHN at the Neuhausen-Monbach train station from the right into the lower Nagold , which runs northwards between Bad Liebenzell and Unterreichenbach .
Tributaries
Tributaries also of higher order, each from the source to the mouth. Data where available according to the geodata viewer or the LUBW map service (see web links), heights partly according to the contour line image there.

nature
→ See main articles: Monbach, Maisgraben and St. Leonhardquelle
From the confluence of its source streams, the Monbach flows through the nature reserve Monbach, Maisgraben and St. Leonhardquelle and the nature reserve of the same name. The protected areas essentially include the wild and romantic forest gorge, which the Monbach has been digging into the red sandstone banks for around 350,000 years , and where it forms numerous small falls. The protection purpose is the preservation and securing of a historically unique spring formation in the Muschelkalk (St. Leonhardquelle) with its typical and species-rich animal and plant communities (reed and sedge area, surrounded by globeflower brook thistle meadows) as well as the preservation and securing of the steep, rocky "sea of rocks" - Slopes of the valley floor and the water cascades of the red sandstone gorge of the Monbach with its species-rich fern-fir-beech forest leading to the canyon and tall herbaceous forest.
