geography

course

The Hörster Bach rises at approx. 185  m above sea level. NN between the up to 206  m high Hörster Egge and the 211  m high Münterburg in a forest. From its origin, the Hörster Bach first flows south-east down to Hörste , flows through the northern part of Hörste and continues to flow east to reach Hiddentrup. In Hiddentrup the brook crosses under the Kreisstraße 5 and flows further to the northeast, after a flow distance of 3.9 km west of the Detmold district Pivitsheide V. L. at an altitude of 125  m above sea level. NN to flow into the Rethlager Bach .

Catchment area

The brook drains the valley basin between the up to 206  m high Hörster Egge in the north and part of the slope of the Teutoburg Forest with the elevations Stapelager Berg ( 361.6  m ), Hermannsberg ( 363.7  m ), Hörster Berg ( 315.1  m ), Esbatzen ( 277.8  m ), and Kleiner Ehberg ( 217.4  m ). The entire catchment area has a size of 7.238 km².

Tributaries

The Hörster Bach has two nameless backwaters. The first and most westerly tributary is 2.1 km long and has its source in the Stapelager Gorge between Stapelager Berg and Uekenpohl, flows through Stapelage and joins the Hörster Bach east of Stapelage and north of Hörste. The second tributary with a length of 1.7 km rises on Hermannsberg in a small spring pond and flows south through the Hörster Kurpark and flows into Hörste into the Hörster Bach. In Hörste, the brook is piped for a length of several hundred meters. On a short stretch in a park in the center of Hörste, the stream was exposed again and renatured.

environment

In 2001 the Hörster Bach was assigned to water quality class II-III (critically polluted). In 2008 the quality situation improved significantly and the Hörster Bach had good water quality in the upper and middle reaches - water quality class I-II (low pollution). The underflow from Hiddentrup is assigned to quality class II-III (critically loaded). The reasons are the agricultural use of the Bachaue and the resulting pollutant inputs from fertilizers and liquid manure . In hot summers, the stream dries up in parts.
