Gruppenbach (Bühler)

View the group creek upstream from the group Bach - web of the church path Schönbronn - Buhlerzell. In the stream bed Keuper sandstone boulders.

The group Bach is a good 5 km long stream in the Ellwanger mountains in northeastern Baden- Württemberg, which opens at Buhler cell Senzenberg from the right in the Buhler.

Geography

Source and course

The group creek rises no 200 m southwest of the Ortsrandes Buhler cell chamber instead about a continuation of the Hirtengasse to about 480 m above sea level. NN. Between the tilled slope tubs Eifeld in the northwest and in the southeast bondage he takes in a small depression in its beginning. In a short radius are here at least three other sources, wood galleries accompany from the beginning of the resulting two runs that flow together soon. After the creek runs for about half a kilometer to the southwest inside and close to the edge of the left- expanding Great Forest along, and then, as soon as wider forest after a total of about 750 m occurs also at his right side to gradually return to the south. After about a kilometer a forest accompanied his run, which reached here by the side of a trough often dry feed, the valley. Three hundred meters later joins from the right, a short Klingenbachstrasse from south of the Benzenhofs, and Bach 1.8 km run on little below 440 m above sea level. NN with is 1.3 km long Forch Bach together, the approach draws from the left towards the east from Spatzenhof.

Right after he passes under the right of approaching the K 2627 Buhlerzell - Benzenhof local road towards Mangold Hausen that the stream continues to accompany a short piece left on their climbing route. Soon joins from the left of the 1.7 km long ditch on Mangold Hauser 425.8 m above sea level. Sea level and about 2.4 km below the top group Bach source. This inflow occurs at the northeast edge of the Mangold Hausen -Schön Bronner hallway island. Thereafter, the group turns its course Bach again slowly to the southwest, meanwhile, without accompanying forest path, the next tributary after about 3.4 km watercourse to 412.4 m above sea level. NN, in turn, from left, is the 2.2 km long Klingenbachstrasse. This draws from the K 2629 ago and is at the headwaters in nature conspicuous. Gallery by a thin tree along its course that cuts through the island called corridor in a small hollow between Mangold Hausen in the north and in the south Schönbronn Its mouth is located on the southwest tip of the good one acre and damp forest meadow triangle of Jörg meadow in the floodplain, on the northeast side of a hiking trail along the old route of the Schönbronn -Bühler Zeller church walk on two small wooden bridges crossing the two just yet separate streams.

After about 3.7 km then replaced by the free corridor along the banks of the Group of Bach, first right-hand side, after about 4.1 km on both sides. Immediately afterwards turn flows from the left of the 0.8 km long stream running through the grinder blade, resulting west of Schönbronn. On the right side of the blade of the Strait of Schönbronn leads to Senzenberg down into Gruppenbachtal, which then slowly descends the left slope to the level of Bach's group on the remaining piece of the group creek valley. In a loop of the Southeast Group creek runs around the estate of the former brick mill around to his right, slightly above their right outgoing channel path is still recognizable at a wood gallery at the foot of the right Talhangs. Finally, the group creek flows after he has passed under the L 1072 Buhlerzell - Abtsgmuend - Pommerstweiler, after a total of 5.2 km watercourse to slightly below 395 m above sea level. NN from right at Buhler cell Senzenberg in the Buhler.

Catchment area

The group stream has a catchment area of 6.6 km ². Dexter removed the watershed also never just 0.7 km from the river, on the left side, however, at the widest point down to about 2.0 km.

The watershed runs in the Northwest, from the junction of the road to Chard Hausen from her, as on the K 2627 Buhlerzell - Kammerstatt first west against the Pfaff creek that empties into Buhlerzell in the Bühler, then north to Sperber Klingenbachstrasse, Reute brook and brown Bach, the Buhler reached via the Avenbach. From Kammerstatt follows the ridge line with deviations of Südtrasse the K 2627 from Kammerstatt on the Sparrow to the junction of the K 2629 here compete beyond the blind Red inflows Dolle Bach, Scherr stream and the streams through the Hahnles and the Höfelesklinge. After the watershed follows the north - parallel K 2629 to Schönbronn around and runs from there one straight through the hillside forest Kohlstatt to the southwest of the mouth of the creek. Here first adjoins the catchment area of ​​the large influx Buhler Uhlbach in the southeast, in the section about from Schönbronn competes in the south of the much smaller and close Ödenbach for Buhler.

From the mouth at Senzenberg to the watershed follows very closely the northerly trending dirt road along the ridge to Rosshalde, deer Reute and Waldwiesenstrasse triangle shock, beyond here flows to significant streams only the short Rossbach for Buhler. From the shock the watershed makes a small Ostkurve to the catchment area of ​​which opens at Buhler Buhler cell in the sheep Bach and then reached again near the junction of the road to Chard Hausen am Benzenhof the K 2627th

The only settlements in the catchment area are the hamlets and farmhouses Kammerstatt ( with the larger part of the local area), the Pfaffenhof, chard Hausen, the brick mill and most of the houses of Senzenberg so so on the 6.6 km ² at most a few hundred people live. A good half of the watershed is forested.

Geology

The group creek flows in the Keuper. Its sources are located in the Upper Colorful marls, the catchment area above extends to the north at Kammerstatt and especially in the east still over plateaus in exchange sandstone and pebbly sandstone underneath. The valley already reached in the central region the Lower Colorful marl and runs entirely in the Middle Keuper.

Geotopes

• Digestion in the Lower Colorful marl about 70 m south of the group creek bridge the road to Chard Hausen.
• Digestion in a pebble sandstone and the Lower Colorful marls in the lower blade of the Mangold Hausener Bach.
• Outcrops in the pebble sandstone and the Lower Colorful marls on Klingenbachstrasse.

Landscape

The blade stream runs for the most part in a closed forest area, only on the lower reaches on the last one to one and a half kilometers, it flows in a wide, dominated by grassland corridor trough. The incoming short slope streams have mainly dug steep blade on the lower reaches, clearly visible from the creek about accompanying the wolf blade road.

In the higher parts of the catchment area in the north and especially in the east are the two clearings to Kammerstatt and Spatzenhof or to Mangolshausen and Schönbronn. Their plateaus and hilly areas are under the plow, only smaller and deeper parts especially on a slope are grassland.

• At first 0.3 km two right and left short inflow from sources in themselves altitude.
• Forch stream flows from left to slightly below 440 m above sea level. NN Taleintritt on the road Buhlerzell -Mangold Hausen, 1,3 km long. Arises west of Spatzenhofs.
• Mangold Hauser ditch flows from the left below the turning away of the tray of Mangold Hausen from the valley floor at 425.8 meters above sea level. NN, 1,7 km long. Arises about 0.8 km north-east of Chard Hausen.
• Klingenbachstrasse, flows from left to 412.4 m above sea level. NN on the southwestern tip of Jörg Wiese, a small triangle in the meadow Talwald is 2.2 km long. Arises in the field, about 0.8 km east-southeast streets of Chard Hausen.
• Bach by the wolf blade opens from left to about 405 m above sea level. NN Taleintritt on the road Schönbronn - Senzenberg 0.8 km long. Gives rise to the eastern edge of the hillside forests against Palace.

Towns

The entire run of the group Bach is on the Buhler district Zeller part of the community Buhlerzell. From the catchment area only a small gusset forest of about 3 ha in the extreme northwest part of the territory of the municipality Bühlertann, he is with the bend in the road K 2627 between Benzenhof and chamber Instead, all the rest is bühlerzellisch.
