The Üßbach (also Ueßbach[A 1] or Üssbach) is a stream, just under 49 kilometres long in the Eifel in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate. It rises near Mosbruch in the county of Vulkaneifel and empties near Alf (Cochem-Zell) into the eponymous river, just before the Alf discharges into the River Moselle. The spa resort of Bad Bertrich lies on the Üßbach.
