The Jagst (IPA: [ˈjakst]) is a right tributary of the Neckar in northern Baden-Württemberg. It is 203 km long. Its source is in the hills east of Ellwangen, close to the Bavarian border. It winds through the towns Ellwangen, Crailsheim and Langenburg. Near Bad Wimpfen the Jagst flows into the Neckar, a few km downstream from the mouth of the river Kocher, that flows more or less parallel to the Jagst.
