The Diestelbach (also called "Diestel" ) is an 11.3 km long orographically left tributary of the Emmer in the Lippe district in North Rhine-Westphalia , Germany .
course
The Diestelbach rises at an altitude of approx. 250 m above sea level. NN on the 426 m high Winterberg in the Blomberg city forest. From its source, the water flows west down to Blomberg . After flowing through Blomberg, the Diestelbach turns to the south and takes its first named tributary, the Königsbach , south of Blomberg near Borkhausen . From this point the Diestelbach continues to flow in a south-easterly direction, touches Nessenberg and flows west of Schieder at an altitude of 123 m above sea level. NN at KM 35.2 in the Emmer.
Tributaries
In addition to 3 unnamed tributaries, the Diestelbach has two named tributaries, which are listed below when viewed downstream:
- Duddenloch: 1.788 km long, left tributary south of Blomberg at KM 4 at 135 m above sea level. NN
- Königsbach : 8.755 km long, right tributary at KM 3.2 at 130 m above sea level. NN
Up to its confluence with the Diestelbach, the Königsbach covered a larger stretch of river and drained a larger area (39.726 km²) than the Diestelbach (8.1 km, 18.261 km²). Accordingly, the body of water should actually be called “Königsbach” from this point on.
