geography
Hazel spring
The hazel rises from the hazel spring at Jagdhaus Haselruhe in a clearing strip between mixed forest in the north and coniferous forest in the south at the western foot of the Markberg .
The spring was dammed for fish farming. Trout live in the crystal clear water of the Hasel spring . The spring water is then fed into another pond.
course
The Hasel flows mainly in a westerly direction between the Kleine Marktberg ( 364 m above sea level ) in the north and the Wintersberg ( 434 m above sea level ) in the south through the almost untouched Haselbach valley to Bad Orb .
There the hazel finally flows out at a height of about 160 m above sea level. NHN a little east of Bahnhofstrasse from the right into the Orb approaching from the southeast .
Its 4.9 km long run ends 120 meters below its source, so it has a mean bed gradient of 24 ‰.
