A beautiful river outside Frankfurt, Germany. The mainspring of the Main River flows through the German states of Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg, forming the border with Bavaria for some distance, and Hesse. Its basin competes with the Danube for water; as a result, many of its boundaries are identical with those of the European Watershed.The Main begins near Kulmbach in Franconia at the joining of its two headstreams, the Red Main and the White Main. The Red Main originates in the Franconian Jura mountain range, 31 mi in length, and runs through Creussen and Bayreuth. The White Main originates in the mountains of the Fichtelgebirge; it is 25 mi long. In its upper and middle section, the Main runs through the valleys of the German Highlands. Its lower section crosses the Lower Main Lowlands to Wiesbaden, where it discharges into the Rhine. Major tributaries of the Main are the Regnitz, the Franconian Saale, the Tauber, and the Nidda.
