Geography

The Aich flowing into the Neckar

The Aich's origin is in Holzgerlingen. It flows to the north through Neuweiler and then south past Schönaich and Waldenbuch. It then flows through the Schönbuch nature park before passing through Betzenberg. After that, it flows through Aichtal before finally passing through Oberensingen and into the Neckar. The river is home to some species of white fish.
