geography
course
The Rothenbach arises in a forest area west of Langenhahn from three source streams. After unification, it initially flows in a north-easterly direction. After leaving the forest, it makes a small arc and then moves southeast through fields and meadows. It now turns to the east and, after crossing under the mountain road, reaches the outskirts of Rothenbach . He passes the place and makes a curve, changing his direction to the south-southeast. At the Rothenbacher Mühle it finally flows into the Elbbach .
