The Diekbek is a stream in Tangstedt , Stormarn district and in the far north of Hamburg . It is a right tributary of the Alster .
geography
The stream rises as Tangstedter Graben near Tangstedt and flows south or south-east. The Tangstedter Graben takes up the Wittmoorgraben west of the Hamburg district of Duvenstedt and is called Diekbek from here on. This flows piped through Duvenstedt, then with numerous meanders through a small forest area and then flows into the Alster. The Diekbek is therefore a 3rd order body of water .
On June 23, 2020, the Hamburg Senate declared the approximately 31 hectares of alluvial forest and meadow area on the lower Diekbek a “Diekbek nature reserve”, in particular because of the occurrence of various bat species, cowslips and marsh marigolds and a refuge for otters and kingfisher.
At the Diekbek there is a level of the inland flood warning service.
