The Guldenbach is an approximately 32.7 km long, orographically left tributary of the Nahe in Rhineland-Palatinate , Germany .
geography
The brook rises in the state forest of Sankt Goar as Volkenbach northwest of Erbach at an altitude of 486 m above sea level. NHN . On its initially generally south-facing course, numerous short tributaries flow to it, including the Erbach from the left. From its mouth in the southwest of the village of Erbach it is called Guldenbach.
In the further course the river flows past Rheinböllen and now mainly in a south-easterly direction through Stromberg , Schweppenhausen , Windesheim and Guldental . It separates the Soonwald in the southwest from the Binger Wald in the northeast, both parts of the Hunsrück . His further path leads him past the southern outskirts of Langenlonsheim . On the northern outskirts of Bretzenheim the Guldenbach flows out at an altitude of 98 m above sea level. NHN with an average water flow of 1 m³ / s on the left in the Nahe .
On its 32.7 km long stretch of the river, the Guldenbach overcomes a height difference of 305 m, which corresponds to an average bed gradient of 9.3 ‰. The Guldenbach drains its 172.733 km² catchment area over the Nahe and Rhine into the North Sea and thus belongs to the river system of the Rhine .
Tributaries
The most important tributaries are Neubrühlbach , Dichtelbach , Seibersbach , Dörrebach , Welschbach and Hahnenbach , each with a catchment area of more than 10 km² . In the following, the tributaries of the Guldenbach are named in the order from the source to the mouth, which are managed by the Rhineland-Palatinate water management authority. In each case, the orographic position of the mouth, the length, the size of the catchment area, the altitude of the mouth and the river code are given.

history
The Guldenbach was an energy source for numerous oil mills along its banks, the most famous of which is the oil mill in Schweppenhausen .
environment
In the upper reaches of the Guldenbach is a coarse-material, silicate low mountain range (type 5), from Stromberg a silicate, fine to coarse-material rich low mountain river (type 9). The water structure quality has changed significantly over long stretches (quality classes V to VI). Only in the upper reaches and between Rheinböllen and Stromberg are there some sections with a better structural quality. In the Rheinböllen area, the course of the river is very strong, and in some sections it has been completely changed. In the localities on the river course, the water structure has changed very much or completely. The water quality in the upper reaches to Windesheim is given as low pollution, in the lower reaches as moderately polluted (as of 2005).
