Geography

Course

The origin of the Lobbachs is debatable. According to some sources gives the Lobbach by the confluence of the right and left Wimmer Bach Bach in Waldwimmersbach. The Wimmer creek rises in the forest a mile northeast of the Schönbrunn hamlet of Hague to 385 m above sea level. NN, the Bach one-half mile from the village church at 357 m above sea level. NN on the southeastern tip of the Hague grubbing island. The left, 4.8 km long river source Wimmer Bach and the right, 4.1 km long Bach then flow to about 225 m above sea level. NN on the eastern outskirts of Waldwimmersbach together. Other sources expect the Wimmer Bach to Bach Lobbach and see the man as its inflow.

After Waldwimmersbach the united stream runs, now commanded unquestioned Lobbach, to the southwest and initially flows through the village Praise field, which together form named after the Bachgemeinde Lobbach with Waldwimmersbach. Then he still pulls through the village monk cell and opens a little further in Meckenheim, where he most recently flows west into the floodplain, at 139 m above sea level. NN from the right in the Elsenz.

The Lobbach has, depending on where he gets a start, a length of 10.0 km (from the confluence in Waldwimmersbach ) or 14.7 km (from forest source at Hague). In the upper course of the river has dug into the upper red sandstone, about from Praising field he cuts the layers of the upper, middle and lower Muschelkalk on.
