The drift , called Antreff in the lower reaches , is a 38.6 km long, left or southwestern tributary of the Schwalm in Hesse , Germany .
course
The river rises as a drift in the Vogelsberg not far from the Schwalm origin. Its source is located east of the Bildsteinskopf (496 m above sea level ) at about 430 m above sea level between Lautertal -Meiches and Feldatal -Windhausen.
The drift flows through the Vogelsbergkreis in a south-north direction and passes Strebendorf, Romrod (both districts of Romrod) and the Alsfeld districts of Billertshausen and Angenrod . Immediately below Angenrods, it passes the reservoir used as a flood retention basin , which is formed by the drift dam . In the municipality of Antrifttal , Seibelsdorf (immediately below the lake), Ruhlkirchen and Bernsburg are traversed.
At the border of the Vogelsbergkreis ( Gießen ) to the Schwalm-Eder-Kreis ( Kassel ), the Antrift not only leaves the northern Vogelsberg foreland to enter the Schwalm landscape , but also changes its name to Antreff. In the municipality of Willingshausen , the main town, Merzhausen and Gungelshausen flow through until the river finally flows into the Schwalm from the left in Zella . At the time of the Hessian community reform in the 1970s, the above-mentioned places formed the provisional community of Antrefftal for two years until it merged into today's community of Willingshausen.
Characteristics
The drift remains a typical low mountain range with a comparatively high gradient until shortly before its mouth. On its last 10 kilometers (immediately below Bernsburg to the mouth of the river) it still falls by around 26 meters in altitude, while the last 10 kilometers before the mouth of the Schwalm is only about half the bottom slope (1.2 ‰ or 1.2 ‰). 12 m) and already has a very slight gradient from Alsfeld.
In addition to the Klein , which drains west of the Rhine-Weser watershed to the Ohm ( Lahn / Rhine system ) , the drift is the main river of the northern Vogelsberg foreland .
Tributaries
The location between the immediately adjacent Rhine-Weser watershed on the left and the Schwalm , which is parallel on the right , means that almost all tributaries of the drift are very short.
In Strebendorf the "Bach bei Strebendorf" (3.0 km, 4.5 km² catchment area) flows from the right, above Romrods the Seebach (3.5 or 4.7 km, approx. 4 km²) follows from the left Nieder-Breidenbach is located and which, together with its receiving water, encloses Ober-Breidenbach .
In Romrod the Ocherbach (4.7 km, 8.4 km²) flows in from the left, two and a half kilometers below the city the Drift flows from the left in the Göringer Bach (11.7 km, 17.6 km²) to its largest tributary by far where the district of Zell is located.
The "Bach vom Neustädter Eck" (2.6 and 3.2 km, 5.2 km²) flows from the left immediately below Bernsburg; In Merzhausen the Fischbach (5.4 km, 9.6 km²), where Alsfeld- Fischbach is located, flows from the right.
No tributary of Antreff is that of the Willing houses districts Wasenberg and Leimbach coming Leimbach , because it flows into Loshausen directly into the Schwalm after it almost touches the Antreff about 100 meters left-sided distance in the mouth of the course.
