The Diete is an 8.8 km long left tributary of the Perf in the central Hessian districts of Lahn-Dill-Kreis and Marburg-Biedenkopf in the southwestern Breidenbacher Grund , Gladenbacher Bergland . It is particularly important because of the B 253 route close to the river and the Breidenbacher districts located in the river valley .

geography

course

The source of the Diete is located at the forester's house, Streitwasser, northeast of Simmersbach , municipality of Eschenburg (Lahn-Dill district), only about 30 meters from the upper reaches of the Simmersbach , which drains in the opposite direction over the Dietzhölze to the southwest to the Dill .

When the headwaters run in northern, later northeastern directions, the Diete circles the 541 m high, wooded Galgenberg halfway from the left. In the further course to the northeast of the flow occurs immediately after the left-sided inflow of the same name coming Achenbach it in Breidenbach - upper Dieten in the valley between the forested peaks around 557 m long tap (left) and the 545 m high damage Berg (right) and passes Niederdieten to finally flow into the Perf from the left south of the core town of Breidenbach .

traffic

The builders of Bundesstraße 253 took advantage of the immediate vicinity of the upper reaches of Diete and Simmersbach . The watershed between Oberer Lahn ( Oberes Lahntal ) and Dill ( Oberes Dilltal ) between the former district towns of Dillenburg and Biedenkopf can be overcome without significant gradients .
