  Kaltenmühlbach is a 6.8-kilometre-long (4.2 mi) left tributary of the Waldnaab in the Upper Palatinate in Bavaria, Germany. It rises in the High Thaner Forest and flows to the Waldnaab.
  
  ## Course
  
  The Kaltenmühlbach springs at 815 m (2,674 ft) above sea level from the so-called Three Wells (Drei Brunnen) at the foot of Entenbühl (901 m (2,956 ft)) near the border of the Silberhütte. After only a few hundred meters, it becomes a little stream in the hamlet Altglashütte. After 3 km (1.9 mi) it flows into a pond.
  
  From the bifurcation of left flowing Silberbach, it divides again after a few kilometers, and some of the water flows back to the Kaltenmühlbach. The Silberbach flows directly into the Waldnaab.
  
  After the Kaltenmühlbach has regenerated after its turn, it flows through a deep valley, where it grows by numerous creeks into a small river. After a few farms, it flows under the road 2172 (Plößberg - Bärnau), and then helps the fledgling Waldnaab flow.
