Melchingen lies on the European watershed between the catchment areas of the Rhine and the Danube. The Lauchert is particularly known for its abundance of trout due to the clean water. At the source in Melchingen, there is a plaque with all important information about the Lauchert and the source. The Lauchert is a tributary of the Danube. Thus, a waterway begins at this source that ends in the Black Sea. The origin of the Lauchert, as is often the case with streams, cannot be precisely determined at a single point. Of the most frequently mentioned sources, the one that forms in the Frenzental, east of the Burladingen sub-municipality of Melchingen, at an altitude of about 760 m, is the only one that provides continuously flowing water. The municipality of Melchingen is located directly on the European watershed. This means that the northern municipal areas drain via the Neckar to the Rhine and the North Sea. The Lauchert, on the other hand, flows into the Danube after 56 km in Sigmaringendorf and from there, after another 2,600 km, into the Black Sea.

This spectacle cannot always be experienced. Only melting snow or heavy rainfall makes the water bubble or shoot out of the slope and splash over the calcareous tufa stones. The meltwater and rainwater seep through the karstified limestone of the Monkberg until it meets the marl layers of the Weißen Jura Alpha, which hold back and conduct the water. It then emerges at the valley cut of the Untere Halde as a so-called layer spring, depositing the lime dissolving from the water connection as tufa.
