Moosbach (Fichtenberger Rot)

BW

The moss Bach is a stream in northern Baden- Württemberg of 4.0 km in length, which opens at the Mainhardter crusher from the left in the red spruce Berger.

Geography

Source and course

The moss creek entfließt next to the B 14 in the local area of Main Hardt at about 486 m above sea level. NN Lammsee and the first flows in straightened path through a very flat grassy hollow of Gewanns Hanfsee in ostsüdöstliche direction.

After about 0.5 km Cross the road paved country road that runs along the route of the previous limit. He then turns to the southeast and flows between two touching patches of forest through whose right is also called moss creek. A moment later it reached from the right in a wet grassy hollow his first inflow. Soon cross it again a dirt road, he now created a more profiled valley and increases from left a further influx of direction Bäumle field, after which he enters a henceforth constantly accompanying him trough the forest and after about 1.5 km to 0.8 acres Töbelsee flows. In this reaches him from the right, another tributary of the Buchenwald. After about 2.5 km it passes the homestead group Württemberg court, which sits on a small terrain pedestal on his left. Here comes the K 2587 of right over a small increase of the valley and then crosses it west towards monk mountain. After almost three kilometers, it feeds a another, smaller pond. The moss creek is now sunk almost 40 m from the surrounding plateau, the accompanying forest stretches now from his bowl up to the two-sided hill crests high, right is the forest Won key Hart, left Burns wood. From here he is even called Sägmühlebach. After about 3.5 km below its origin from the left opens the Krebsbächle in him, his longest -resistant water-bearing creek. After a total of 4.0 km, it reaches to the Mainhardter Traubenmühle left the valley of the Red Spruce Berger and ends at about 395 m above sea level. NN in the local left-sided Mühlkanal, then the kinks in his mouth direction.

Catchment area

The moss stream has a catchment area of 4.8 km ². Its north-western tip located in Main Hardt at the junction of the main road to the B 14 From there follows its border this road into something more southerly direction until the water tower south of floor and from there the L 1050 towards the huts. The village they crossed towards southeast to the edge of the forest above the Wielandsweiler increase (hall district board ). From there, the watershed pulls in direction southsouthwest back on the L 1050 and then down through the hillside forest to the moss creek estuary to the crusher.

From there it leads in a north- northwesterly direction the crest of the Steingreutles high, through the forest Won key hard, and then crosses the large clearing of Buchwiesen west of the Württemberg court. They reached the central east-west forest path through the beech forest at its intersection with the limit line and then follows him further to the southern tip of Mainhardter Waspenhofes. From there, the watershed runs to back to B 14 then north along the K 2585 Hammerschmeide -Main Hardt.

In the north- west and the north the catchment area of ​​Brettach borders, which pulls the lower heater. All other competitors in the open spruce Berger red in the south. In the north- east around huts it is the Wielandsweiler Rötenbach, in the south there is the other side of the watershed only insignificant Hanggerinne to red, in the southeast a more significant, but nameless blade stream that flows from the Buchwiesen towards Hankertsmühle, for the most part compete here but the almost the same place which opens, longer and more western Kimmel Bach. In the West, finally the watershed to the master stream runs.

Bach as catchment area lie entirely in the territory of the municipality Main Hardt, is for the most part on Hüttener district; only the outermost northwest lies on Mainhardter district.

Landscape

The moss creek flows in the upper reaches by a low, moist grassy hollow, initially left accompanied by a commercial area, rich in the later sometimes Forest tongues to the shore. In the middle reaches, he is in a small Taltrog, the gallery forest fills. Below the Württemberg court he performs as Klingenbachstrasse in a closed forest area.

In the catchment area outweighs the open hall, which is shared by central forest area around the Buchenwald around in two islands. In the smaller north-western edge of the South East Main Hardt there are almost only meadows, in the larger huts to the east outweigh these less clear. In the north, on a guideway extending from the water tower to the east small ridge ( district name Old fields ) there are many fields, south to Bäumle field and further south between the Württemberg court in the West and in the East huts sporadically.

In the forests of the central basin, such as those on both sides of the lower reaches is dominated by coniferous forest, followed by mixed forest; pure deciduous forest comes almost did not before.

Reserves

At first the moss creek influent stream between forest moss creek in the north and beech forest to the south the right troughs half is as scattered meadow ( rough pasture ) under habitat protection and is a natural monument, a this then from the south west of the Limes line from the Buchenwald tapered trough is wetland. Nearby is also a small swamp in the hallway. On the southeast tip of the larger forest area between the moss creek in the south and the B 14 in the north to the left of the creek a few Ar large forest pond along with the coming of the northeast inlet is protected.

At the mouth of moss Bach in the Töbelsee are around 0.7 ha swamp forest habitat under protection, approximately the same area is also a natural monument. Continue down the valley are 2.4 hectares of yard from Württemberg to the pond about 0.5 km below creek floodplain forest. The valley floor in the Keuper blade downstream from this pond in the closed blades forest as well as the forest section of the incoming Krebsbächles have together with 5 hectares, the largest expansion in all areas under habitat protection in the catchment.

At the southern tip of huts there is a protected orchid meadow.

Towns

The moss creek runs only the first few hundred meters in the precincts of Main Hardt ( settlements Waspenhof and Neuwirthaus ). After that, the valley is settlement free to the mouth at the crusher. Right on the top left downhill edge is the Württemberg court, he and all the dewatered moss creek villages are part of district cottages, they are the part of huts themselves, and the smaller settlements Bäumle field and room house.

Geology

The moss creek begins its run in Stubensandstein and remains more than half of its course therein up to about the Württemberg court. There he reached the Upper Colorful marl, about from the small lake dale which the pebbly sandstone. About the inflow of Krebsbächles to lie to Talmündung the red valley on both sides on the slopes of the Association has slid down clods.

In the area of ​​Töbelsees a pulling in the trough line of the opening out from the Buchenwald Bach disorder is suspected.
