The Banzerbach is little more than 2.5 km long lower reaches one on the main line to the headwaters pond digging and then Buxbach 9 km long river system in Central Franconia district of Weissenburg-Gunzenhausen , the little south of Pleinfeld from the left and west in the Swabian Rezat opens .
geography
Weihergraben upper course
The Weihergraben is being created in the Pfofeld community, close to the Sorghof, south of the Gunzenhausen – Pleinfeld railway at around 424 m above sea level. NHN . It follows the eastern course of the railway line, on one section mainly through a field, also underground. Where the road from Sorghof to Thannhausen crosses the railway embankment in the south, there are three nameless ponds with a total of around 0.9 hectares next to the run at a group of agricultural buildings . Half a kilometer further down the stream, the Weihergraben flows at around 410 m above sea level. NHN merges with the slightly shorter, but significantly richer catchment area, the Bachwiesengraben to the Buxbach .
The Weihergraben has a gradient of around 14 meters along its course of around 1.7 km in length and thus a mean bottom gradient of around 8 ‰. It moves in an almost always woodless ditch between fields and some meadows.
Middle Buxbach
The Buxbach, formed north-northeast of Thannhausen, runs east-south-east throughout its 4.7 km long section of the Banzerbach main line. It initially flows through a pond at the foot of the western Zellersberg , which is wooded here down to the course. Immediately afterwards it crosses over to the area of the market town of Pleinfeld , takes the Espangraben from the right from the direction of Thannhausen and reaches the western edge of Veitserlbach , where it runs through the village pond. At the other edge of the village, a hillside brook flows down from the Zellersberg from the left, after which the valley floor narrows sharply and the brook flows a little further south of Ramsberg between nearby hillside forests on the left and right. Here also occurs state road 2222 from Gunzenhausen in the west to the east-southeast Pleinfeld in the floodplain. After the lying left of the Running courses of Ramsbach over a kilometer Weiherkette sets Prince pond one, covering the combined ha between 8 and 8.5 area. At its end it is not far to the beginning of Sankt Veit , where the Buxbach and the Walkerszeller Bach coming from the right and west meet in a moist floodplain area with small ponds and drains south of the village at about 386 m above sea level. NHN united to the Banzerbach .
The Buxbach has a catchment area of around 10.6 km² and on its name section a mean bed slope of around 5 ‰.
Lower Banzerbach
The Banzerbach initially flows almost southeast. Its valley, like that of the Buxbach in its lower part, is initially narrow and accompanied by nearby hillside forests. After leaving Sankt Veit, it runs in a trough between steeper embankments on the slope. Shortly before the Banzermühle he experiences a last inflow from the left, after which the whole valley fills with forest. The stream crosses under the embankment of the Treuchtlingen – Nuremberg railway line and then continues eastwards to the edge of the Swabian Rezat valley floodplain. Then it feeds the so-called landscape pond with a short side arm and finally flows, last of all, to the northeast, from the left and at about 374 m above sea level. NHN in the Swabian Rezat .
The Banzerbach has a length of about 2.6 km, on which it drops by about 12 meters in altitude, it thus has a mean bed gradient of about 5 ‰.
Catchment area
The Banzerbach drains 20.0 km² of the Central Franconian Basin eastwards to the Swabian Rezat. Its catchment area extends from 504 m above sea level. NHN high, nameless mountain between the municipality of Pfofeld and its northeastern wasteland, Sorghof, the highest mountain in the catchment area, over 9 km east-southeast to the mouth; across it it is up to 4 km wide.
Its southwestern watershed from the named unnamed mountain to Pfaffenberg ( 498 m above sea level ) south of Rittern is part of the European main watershed , because beyond that, the Dornhauser Mühlbach and the Störzelbach drain to the Danube tributary Altmühl . The runoff on the other side of the other watersheds, like the Banzerbach water, ultimately reaches the Rhine via the Swabian Rezat . The immediate competitors are on the southern watershed from Pfaffenberg to the confluence of the Vordere and Hintere Troppelgraben , both of which are very short streams. Behind the short north-eastern watershed from the mouth through the settlement area of Pleinfeld to the Schwarzleite ( 448 m above sea level ) there are no significant left tributaries to the Swabian Rezat downstream of the Banzerbach mouth. The long northern watershed from the Schwarzleite back to the Westspitze separates the drainage area of the large reservoirs Großer and - immediately above it - Kleiner Brombachsee , which the Brombach flows through to the east in a roughly parallel course to the Swabian Rezat.

geology
In the catchment area of the Banzerbach, geological layers stretch from the Black Jurassic on the higher heights down to the sandstone keuper in the valley up to the mouth. The highest watershed to the southwest has a closed Black Jura cover, which also continues along the southern to the plateau on the plain near Walkerszell . On the north there are two isolated Black Jurassic peaks east of Ramsberg on the vineyard and on the Zellersberg around Regelsberg. Around these high Lias there is a strip of Feuerletten , which also covers the Spielberg ( 442 m above sea level ) on the mouth of the Buxbach and Walkerszeller Bach. Everywhere else there is sandstone keuper, with the exception of the spur between the lower valley of the Banzerbach and that of the Hinteren Tröppelgraben south of it, where the terraced gravel lies, as well as the mouth area in the floodplain sediment of the Swabian Rezat.
Nature and the environment, tourism
The Banzerbach has quality class II (moderately polluted). European beavers live in Tal . The entire upper valley of the right upper reaches of Walkerszeller Bach is a drinking water protection area.
The Banzerbachtal is cut relatively steep. A hiking trail runs through it from the Sorghof down to Sankt Veit , several cross it from north to south on routes through Thannhausen, through Veitserlbach, from Ramsberg and through Sankt Veit, the latter one of the Bavarian Main-Danube long-distance hiking trails. There are also some long-distance hiking trails on the left ridge to the Brombachsen.
