character

The water masses of the Genschbach are different: while it is a raging brook in the rainy season, it is only a small brook with a width of about 90 cm in longer dry phases . It receives several small inlets 200 meters from its mouth. In this area it flows through a small valley. Larger rock formations can also be found there. About 60% of the length of the stream is in the forest, the remaining 40% of it flows through pastureland.
