geography

course

The Geltnach rises west of Roßhaupten , turns early in the area of ​​this community to the north run through a large forest area, where it briefly separates the area of ​​the Seeg community , then longer that of the town of Marktoberdorf on the left from that of the community of Stötten am Auerberg on the right. She pulls a noose through the Stötten area and then changes to that of Marktoberdorf for a longer distance. After it has moved to the area of ​​the municipality of Biessenhofen , it flows into the upper Wertach from the right opposite the village of the same name of the municipality .

In the charming Stöttener Moos, the Stöttener See was owned by the Augsburg bishops until around 1800, and was then drained. Part of the Geltnach, which was straightened over longer stretches at the beginning of the 20th century, is to be renatured from 2017.
