Its headwaters located on the ridge between the municipalities Berglen and rowing mountain south of the hamlet Königsbronnhof. With a blade, he runs west down the valley and crosses to the south several districts of the municipality Berglen, especially savior castle and Oppelsbohm. The Buchenbachtal is the central valley of Berglen, which is horseshoe-shaped group so; the numerous small streams of the eastern and western slopes receiving book Bach drained most of the mountain landscape.

After about 7 km, the district Erlenhof, where the carrying stream before Buocher height in a sharp turn to the northwest and maintains this direction to the mouth largely at. In Birkmannsweiler he leaves the Berglen and enters the open landscape of the Neckar basin. In Winnenden it limits the old town in the northeast. After the next place, people Bach, the Bach book reaches the deeper layers of the Muschelkalk and begins to dig into tortuous course in a deeper shrinking valley. Last locations on the stream are the Leutenbacher Weiler zum Stein and the single settlement Steinächle that already belongs to the district of Ludwigsburg.

In Steinächle also crosses the penultimate, pretty little street the stream whose narrow valley always then further deepened in the last five kilometers and is no longer suitable for settlements or agricultural use. This section of the valley is a nature reserve ( see below). Finally, the book opens to the creek about 23 km between Postal and Kirchberg in the Murr; shortly before it spans the railway line Backnang -Ludwigsburg and a final road crosses it.

Catchment area

The book Bach drained about 62 square kilometers, it has thus after the Bottwar the second largest catchment among the tributaries of Murr and is also the longest of all. The catchment area is mainly in the Berglen and on the northern slope of the Buocher height, in the Neckar basin, it increases the flow then barely. It occurred to him numerous smaller streams, of which only the Steinach is just over 4 km long, all the others are even shorter.

Current usage

Traffic

The valley of the book Bach is the central development axis of Berglen, which are admittedly a relatively remote rural area. Outside the Berglen the valley is crisscrossed by Weiler zum Stein of county roads, then it is traffic free and only partially accessible by hiking trails.

Expansion of state

The book Bach is classified as waters along the entire length of the second order. According to the Water Act for Baden- Württemberg so is the river bed in the property of municipalities, they are also responsible for the maintenance of the water.

The upper reaches and the lower reaches of the creek is still largely natural, and in 2004 the water structure quality classes I and II ( " unchanged " to " moderately altered " ) is assigned. Only the more densely populated sections in the middle stream between Birkmannsweiler people and Bach fall into the classes III to V ( " clear " to " completely changed ").

Conservation

Under special protection of the underflow is from Steinächle together with the valley sides, for the 118 hectares in reserve Buchenbachtal was established. It is to preserve the local meadow valley from foreign usage, again ask the deciduous forest and protect rare plant and animal species in shore woods. It was spun off in 1989 from the older nature reserve Lower Bitzer, which includes, among other areas on both sides of Buchenbachtals even larger parts of the Murrtals.

Also under conservation, large parts of the upper course. From the spring to just before rescuers castle lies the creek Southern in the conservation area Weissacher valley and Berglen, then up to the entrance of Birkmannsweiler, interrupted only by the sections in the local area of savior castle and Oppelsbohm, in the conservation area book Bach, Brunnbächle, Steinach and Zipfelbachtal with adjacent slopes and height citizens.

The water quality of Bach's book is average for regional conditions. In the waters report 2004 section at Birkmannsweiler are three of four sections (with rescuers castle, Weiler zum Stein and at the mouth ) classified as " moderately polluted " (class II ), but " critically loaded " as (class II -III).
