The Weihergraben flows at an altitude of 466 m above sea level. NN from a small pond on the northeastern outskirts of Oberasbach . He feeds two other ponds nearby.

The brook feeds a few more ponds southwest of Pfofeld and south of Gundelshalm and between them takes on the Mösleinsgraben from the left with a sub-catchment area that is almost the same size as that of its upper course. After this tributary, it runs south-east alongside the remaining ponds. The Weihergraben opens after a run of around three kilometers at an altitude of 424 m above sea level.
