Geography

The Flossach rises near the village of Gerum, northwest of Türkheim at an elevation of. It flows in a northwesterly direction through a broad valley, formed during the last glacial times. The long Weissbach flows parallel to the Flossach in the same valley. Approximately below the mouth of the brook Wörth, the Flossach divides into two branches. The main Flossach branch flows through the towns of Tussenhausen and Zaisertshofen; the other branch flows through Mattsiesmühle and along the Mindelheim-Mattsies airfield. Just before joining the Mindel at an elevation of, the Flossbach flows through the district of Günzburg and forms the border between Unterallgäu and Günzburg counties.
