Federbach lowland
The Federbach lowland is an area in the triangle of the places Rheinstetten ( Mörsch ), Au am Rhein and Durmersheim . Most of the drainage is provided by the Federbach , in the southern part of the landscape the Kunzenbach also contributes to this.
The contours of the forests on the waters allow the former meander of the Rhine to be seen from a bird's eye view . The forests on the Kunzenbach mainly consist of poplar and alder . However, you can find very large walnut trees , especially in the middle of the forest . Oaks and beeches occur sporadically in the Federbach lowlands. Conifers and birches , however, are in vain.
