Wikipedia description:
The Pegnitz (German: [ˈpeːɡnɪt͡s] ) is a river in Franconia in the German state of Bavaria. The Pegnitz has its source in the town of the same name at an altitude of 425 m (1,394 ft) and meets the Rednitz at 283 m (928 ft) in Fürth to form the Regnitz river. Shortly after the source, the Pegnitz unites with the 15 km (9.3 mi) long Fichtenohe while keeping the name of the shorter tributary. Some therefore consider the Fichtenohe as the upper course of the river Pegnitz. The source of the Fichtenohe is in Lindenhardt Forest (Landkreis Bayreuth) north of the town of Pegnitz. The Pegnitz is about 113 km (70 mi) long, with Fichtenohe 127 km (79 mi). The river is inhabited by numerous ducks, coots, swans, and gulls.
