The fountain blade is a forest blade over a kilometer long in the western Burgbergwald north-east of the town of Talheim in the town of Vellberg in the Schwäbisch Hall district in north-eastern Baden-Württemberg . The less than two kilometers long, named after her brook through the Brunnenklinge flows into the Echtbach from the right to the southwest of the Hilpert residential area in Vellberg .

geography

course

The stream running through the Brunnenklinge begins at the beginning of the valley, which is still shallow, in the high forest between the Streich forest troughs in the north and Rosswart in the south at around 460  m above sea level. NHN close to a fork in the earth. The creek, which has temporarily dried up, initially runs westwards and after about 300 meters, now deepened by about 20 meters, is crossed by a developed forest path coming from the north, which then follows it almost to the mouth on the left lower slope.

The next 600 meters it flows in a bed up to one and a half meters wide, which is also fed by small spring drains from short slope notches and by seepage springs on the lower slopes, in a typical landscape blade southwest between the long mountain spur Binselberg on the right and the Rosswart on the left up to one about 397  m above sea level A little more than 0.1 hectare large pond, which it crosses. This is followed by half a dozen small ponds with a diameter of less than 10 meters, more or less overgrown and at times close to drying out; on the right lower slope are two sinkholes above them.

In the area of ​​the ponds, the brook already runs southwards, after them the Binselberghang opens up to a cattle pasture, in which there is a larger sinkhole overgrown with weeds and bushes, while forest trees still stand on the left on the lower slope and the brook now flows to the southeast. On the bank there is a field hedge, at the end of which the stream runs inconspicuously and in a straight line as a meadow ditch to the Talheim– Hilpert road . The mountain forest also ends on the left at the road crossing.

Beyond the stream, there is only one last stretch of path less than 200 meters long, on which it winds a little next to trees and bushes. On the right there is a flat hollow overgrown with herbaceous vegetation with a sinkhole in the middle, which can dump the water into a wide pool after it has rained down; it then flows over a ditch to the Echtbach . The brook from the Brunnenklinge flows into this a little above at 374.3  m above sea level. NHN , just under 0.4 km southwest of Hilpert and over a kilometer east-northeast of the center of Talheim, in the vicinity of which the Echtbach in turn flows into the Aalenbach .

The brook from the Brunnenklinge flows after its 1.7 km long, in a 135 ° left bend with a mean slope of about 51 ‰ flowing course about 86 meters below its origin.

Catchment area

The Brunnenklinge has a catchment area of ​​0.8 km², of which over five sixths are in the forest; Only the slope of the Binselberg to the right of the lower reaches and the immediate mouth area are open. From a natural point of view, it belongs to the sub-area of Burgberg-Vorhöhen and Speltachbucht of the Swabian-Franconian Forest Mountains and reaches its 481  m above sea level. NHN highest point on its eastern tip just above the source in the Rosswart forest.

In turn it borders on the catchment areas of the following neighboring waters:

  • In the west, north-west and north, beyond the narrow and elongated Binselberg spur ridge, lies the valley of the Aalenbach , which takes in the Echtbach ; At most short bodies of water run towards it from the scabbard; the longest of these is the Vogelsbach , which rises in a stroke ;
  • in the north-east lies the valley of the Steppach , the next higher Aalenbach tributary, behind a short watershed section over the path of the K 2665 Großaltdorf - Frankenhardt - Steinehaig ;
  • in the southeast, behind the watershed through the Rosswart forest, lies the valley crack of the Hilpertsklingenbach , the right-hand Echtbach upper course, and finally a short section of the Echtbach valley itself.

The entire area is in the urban area of Vellberg and is without any settlement.

geology

The fountain blade itself lies from the beginning to the mouth of the stream in the gypsum keuper ( grave field formation ), which is already indicated by the sinkholes mentioned in the course. The stream therein rises just below the layer boundary for overlapping Schilfsandstein ( Stuttgart formation ), the upper blade with a generally narrow strip at the high level Ross Wart left and in the coating including right back shaped and at the rear Binselberg. At the mouth, the receiving Echtbach changes into the Lettenkeuper ( Erfurt formation ).

In the catchment area, anhydrite and gypsum are mined in the anhydrite mine Kreuzhalde . The mine access tunnel is located on the Kreuzhalde on the left slope of the Aalenbach valley and leads into the Sporn Binselberg. Most of the concession area, which is partly being dismantled and partly open, lies within the catchment area under the Binselberg, the Streich and the Rosswart and extends beyond that.
