The Weidlingbach rises in the northwest of the Vienna Woods and flows 16.4 km into the Danube in Klosterneuburg , Lower Austria , through the Klosterneuburg gorge .

course

The origin of the Weidlingbach lies near the village of Scheiblingstein am Scheiblingsteinberg at approx. 450  m above sea level. In the longitudinal course, it initially flows through the villages of Steinriegl , Weidlingbach , Weidling and finally Klosterneuburg . It corresponds to a typical Wienerwald creek with the corresponding hydrology of the flysch zone in the Bavarian-Austrian Alpine Foreland and Flysch fishing area (J). According to Moog et al. (2000) the river order number 4 is assigned to the Weidlingbach . The dominant runoff events are spring precipitation and snowmelt.
