Herzbach is a 2.3-kilometer-long forest stream in Bavaria, Germany. [1]
The Herzbach rises on the Herzberg (427 m) in the Huckelheimer Forest, northeast of Oberwestern in the Herzborn. It is ecologically significant as part of the headwaters region of the Kahl River catchment area. [2]
The stream originates at the Herzborn (Herz spring) on the western slope of the Herzberg mountain (427 m a.s.l.) within the Huckelheimer Forest[2]. It flows exclusively through the municipal territory of Westerngrund in the Aschaffenburg district . This region, known as the Bavarian Spessart, is characterized by wooded hills and small valleys.
