At this point / I would like to quickly / say something about the source:
To quote the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 - 1979), who was known to a wide audience for his pun and “Noch'n Gedicht”, with a short quatrain:
"There is certainly a lot of beautiful about it,
on the element, the wet.
Because you can drink the water.
But you can - also leave it alone. "

A bit of water comes out of the spring, then you walk along the course of the stream and have to keep checking whether the Klingbach is still there.
I was completely surprised when I came back from the Eichwald to the Klingbachtal and the brook had already become a brook.

Beautiful source of the 38 km long Klingsbach, which flows into the Michelsbach at Hördt and then into the Rhine.
