The Eckertsbach is an approximately one kilometer long forest brook on the suburb of the eponymous capital of the municipality Bühlerzell in the district of Schwäbisch Hall in northeastern Baden-Württemberg , which after a northern run between the hamlets of Spitzenberg and Senzenberg of the municipality on the northern edge of the Senzenwald from left and south in the upper Bühler opens.

geography

course

The Eckertsbach rises from a source at about 445  m above sea level. NHN in a drained hillside meadow about 400 meters northwest of the Bühlerzell hamlet Spitzenberg behind the water reservoir on the ridge. After less than 50 meters, it enters its coniferous Eckertsklinge valley basin , in which it now flows roughly northwards with small turns over its up to a meter wide bed. After it has passed two forest crosses one after the other, it leaves the peak forest immediately and flows a few meters afterwards from the left to around 395  m above sea level. NHN into the upper Bühler, about 0.6 km southeast of the first house in the hamlet of Senzenberg von Bühlerzell, which it passed on its further course.

The Eckertsbach flows after its 1.1 km long path with a mean bottom gradient of about 45 ‰ about 50 meters below its origin.

Catchment area

The Eckertsbach drains about 0.7 km², which naturally belong to the sub-area Sulzbacher Wald of the Swabian-Franconian Forest Mountains , to the upper Bühler. In just over half of its catchment area there is forest, predominantly coniferous wood, namely in the valley basin through which it flows up to a height of about 450  m above sea level. NHN , but also in the southern wedge of the catchment area, whose 480.6  m above sea level. NHN is the highest point on the southern tip on a forest knoll. On the small ridges next to the valley, mostly sandy fields occupy the field. The only settlement in it is part of the small Bühlerzell hamlet of Spitzenberg, which sits to the right of the middle course on the watershed in the east, but on this side there are only a few buildings.

This sheath separates in its southeast section from the Scheffelbach , the left in the west from the south first from the Lautenbach , then from its receiving water Gerabronner Bach , envious competitors are Bühler tributaries.

The catchment area is in the middle Mittelkeuper . The plateau consists of Stubensandstein ( Löwenstein Formation ), in the valley the brook then cuts successively into Upper Bunte Marl ( Mainhardt Formation ), silica sandstone ( Hassberge Formation ) and, at the bottom, Lower Colorful Marl ( Steigerwald Formation ).

The stream covers its last few meters in the Bühleraue in the Upper Bühlertal nature reserve with side valleys and adjacent areas . A small gusset of the catchment area in the far south is part of a largely outside water protection area around Steinenbühl . The entire catchment area lies on the Bühlerzell suburb of the municipality of Bühlerzell.
