Graswiesenbach is a small river of Hesse, Germany. It flows into the Nidda in Rudingshain. It originates in the Vogelsberg mountain at an altitude of about 713 m above sea level just north of the Rudingshainer Flösser.
It flows in a west-southwestern direction, first through forest and then through grassland before finally flowing into the Nidda. At this stage the river is at an altitude of about 423 m above sea level.
Graswiesenbach is approx. 4.0 km long and ends about 290 altitude meters below its origin, thus it has an average bottom slope of about 73 ‰.
