The Daade (also called Daadenbach ) is 16.027 km long and has a catchment area of 53.28 km², the largest and a left or southern tributary of the Heller and flows in the west of the southern Hellerbergland through the Altenkirchen district in the northeast of Rhineland-Palatinate ( Germany ).

The Daadetalbahn runs along the Daade from Daaden via Alsdorf to Betzdorf .

course

The Daade rises not far from the 654 m high bridge head , which is located above Emmerzhausen on the Westerwald basalt plateau , the center of gravity of the (High) Westerwald ; the source of the brook is also known as the “sunshine granule”. The source area was in the security area of ​​the Daaden military training area, which had been abandoned in 2014, and was only allowed to be entered and viewed with prior approval.

The Daade mainly flows in a north-westerly direction and after about one kilometer flows into the southern Hellerbergland, which manifests itself in the incision in the river valley and in the forest. From Daaden it mainly flows parallel to the Daadetalbahn . Coming from the south, it flows into the Heller on the eastern outskirts of Alsdorf , which flows into the Sieg a little further northwest near Betzdorf .

The section up to the confluence of the Friedewalder Bach in Daaden is also known as the Emmerzhäuser Bach. From the confluence of the Friedewalder Bach to the confluence with the Heller, the Daade is a second-order body of water. In this area, the Daade was made accessible for all aquatic creatures, for which ten old weir systems, which were previously used to irrigate floodplain meadows, but are no longer of any water management importance, were dismantled by spring 2017.

The tributaries of the Daade are (ordered downstream):

  • Derscherbach (left, 3.9 km, 9.3 km²) (water code number 272282)
  • Birenbach (right, 2.0 km, 2.3 km²) (water code 2722832)
  • Friedewalder Bach (left, 4.9 km, 8.1 km²) (water code 272284)
