The Piława (German Peile , formerly Reichenbach ) is a right tributary of the Schweidnitzer Weistritz .
The Piława rises in the eastern foothills of the Owl Mountains near Kluczowa ( Kleutsch ), which belongs to the urban and rural municipality of Ząbkowice Śląskie (Frankenstein) . It flows north for almost twelve kilometers through the Peilau villages and then past Dzierżoniów ( Reichenbach ) and Krzyżowa (Kreisau) . South of Świdnica (Schweidnitz) it turns to the east. Three kilometers after Pszenno ( Weizenrodau ) it flows into the Schweidnitzer Weistritz.
