The Breg is a river in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It is the right-side and longer of the two streams that form the river Danube. It begins at 1078 m above sea level in the Black Forest, near Furtwangen im Schwarzwald, 100 m from the European Watershed. It flows through Furtwangen and Vöhrenbach. After 49 km, it joins the Brigach stream in the city of Donaueschingen and is henceforth called Danube.
