The Elta is a small river on the Baar in the Tuttlingen district , which flows into the Danube from the left after about 16 kilometers to the southeast in Tuttlingen .

geography

course

The Elta rises around 780  m above sea level. NHN in a forest area between Trossingen , Spaichingen and Gunningen auf der Baar next to the cattle pasture belonging to Spaichingen. It initially flows east past Gunningen. Directly after Gunningen it receives a tributary from the Lombach from the right. It flows on to Seitingen . A left tributary near Seitingen is the Stettbach, which rises in Hausen ob Verena . After Seitingen it is fed by the Schönbach coming from Oberflacht, which rises near Schura and is longer than the Elta at the confluence. Finally, the Elta also runs through Wurmlingen , where the Faulenbach, which rises near Dürbheim, flows into it from the left before it flows into the Danube in Tuttlingen , around 15 kilometers from the source. Its lower course lies in the Upper Danube Nature Park .

Especially in summer, when the Danube almost completely disappears into the ground between Immendingen and Möhringen , Elta and Krähenbach are the first water suppliers after the Danube subsided .
