course
The Weppach rises above Leuzenberg , a district of Reichenschwand , and flows out near the Reichenschwander Castle . During the year, the stream can be compared to a trickle. It first flows through Leuzenberg, then the basin south of Leuzenberg, before passing through the Reichenschwander district of Oberndorf. In the vicinity of the Reichenschwander railway stop, it crosses the Nürnberg-Hersbruck railway line. Then it flows under the B14 , which runs through the Reichenschwand , before the stream flows into the Pegnitz in the area of the hotel on the church square near the Reichenschwander Castle.
