The Zeiherbach (also Zeiher Bach ) is a 7 km long brook in the canton of Aargau . It rises in the municipality of Thalheim in the Brugg district , between Zeiher Homberg and Würz (Berg) at an altitude of around 650 m. ü. M. It flows through Kilholz for the first 500 m . Later in the Klus between Zeiher Homberg and Würz it leaves its artificial stream bed and goes into its natural course. The Polenstrasse runs along the stream . After about 600 m at the end of the relatively narrow gorge, the Zeiherbach comes to a level and crosses the municipality and district boundary at the hamlet of Sulzbann; it then flows for around 1.1 km in the municipality of Densbüren in the Aarau district . Shortly before the district of Oberzeihen, which belongs to Zeihen , it crosses the district border again and is then in the district of Laufenburg . The brook flows there past the chapel of Oberzeihen towards Zeihen. From there it meanders between the Bözberg route and the cantonal road in a wide field before reaching Hornussen , where it flows into the Sissle .
