The Blattbach is a tributary of the Helmbach, roughly 3 kilometres (2 mi) long, in the Palatinate Forest in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate. It rises in the central part of the forest and flows eastwards before discharging into the Helmbach. The Blattbach is located entirely within the territory of the municipality of Elmstein.
