The Bellamonter Rottum is a river in the Biberach district . After a roughly 13 km long run it flows approximately in a north-northeast direction in Ochsenhausen with the right Steinhauser Rottum coming from the south to the Rottum , which then runs north to northwest to the Danube tributary Westernach .
Alternatively, the Bellamonter Rottum is also called Obere Rottum , and accordingly the Steinhauser Rottum is also called Untere Rottum . Others beat the noticeably longer upper reaches of the Bellamonter Rottum, which has only a tad less catchment area than the Steinhauser Rottum, to the Rottum itself.
course
The origin of the Bellamonter Rottum is located around 800 meters southwest of Füramoos , a suburb of the Eberhardzell municipality , in the Füramooser Ried and then flows following its main direction through the village of Füramoos and then in a semicircular arc around Bellamont and the former Bellamont Castle . It is now heading towards the village of Rottum and crosses it before, following a natural course, it flows to Ochsenhausen . Here it joins after 13.0 km with the Steinhauser Rottum to the Rottum .
