The Heckbach is a 4.9 km long brook in central Baden-Württemberg , which drains the small plateau of Hüllen in the municipality of Kusterdingen . It flows into the municipality and town of Wannweil in the Reutlingen district from the left and southwest into the lower Echaz , which soon afterwards reaches the Neckar .

geography

course

The Heckbach rises as Hollbach from a source at about 409  m above sea level. NN in Gewann Schlat northeast of Kusterdingen-Wankheim and moves in a flat course eastwards towards the municipality Jettenburg, where it receives some partly longer inflows. Shortly before Jettenburg it crosses under the B 28 , then it passes through the village, at the end of which it turns north along the edge of the forest and takes in its left source stream Segaderbach , which is only half as long . The combined stream , now called Heckbach , crosses in a now noticeable valley basin and in a north-easterly direction for almost half a kilometer a strip of forest, after which it soon runs from the south to the Lumpenbach , which even here exceeds it somewhat in length and catchment area. Then he moves north-northeast to Wannweil , where he is in the center of the village at about 320  m above sea level. NN flows into the lower Echaz from the left .

Catchment area

The Heckbach has a catchment area of ​​13.2 km², to which the Lumpenbach contributes 6.38 km². It extends from its southwestern tip west of Kusterdingen-Mähringen, where it is around 440  m above sea level. NN reached the greatest heights, about 6 km to the northeast to the mouth; across it it reaches a width of almost 3.5 km.

In the northwest, the catchment area of ​​the Neckar tributary borders the Blaulach , in the north the Ramslach also drains the village of Kusterdingen directly to the Neckar. In the north-east the receiving Echaz competes , in the east and south-east its left tributary Firstbach intervenes. The southern watershed runs close to the edge of the valley of the Herrenbach , which itself drains west to the Steinlach , which last competes in the southwest and also feeds the Neckar.

About 0.7 km² of the catchment area belong to the northeastern tip before the confluence with Wannweil , on the south-eastern edge less than 0.3 km² of uninhabited terrain belong to the Ohmenhausen district of Reutlingen , the vast majority of the remainder belongs to Kusterdingen . About 1.4 km² of its area is forested, in the open country arable farming clearly predominates.

Inflow system

Hierarchical list of tributaries from source to mouth. Water lengths usually according to LUBW-FG10 (data record entries), catchment areas according to LUBW-GEZG, lake areas according to LUBW-SG10, height information according to the contour image on the geodata viewer. Other sources for the information are noted.

Mouth of the rear Bach in Wannweil adjacent the lower Muehlweg close to the Hall gyro of left and southwest in the lower Echaz . The brook is 2.198 km long from the confluence of its source streams, from the official Hollenbach source 4.853 km long and has a catchment area of ​​13.153 km² behind it.

Localities

In addition to the estuary village of Wannweil (own municipality), the Kusterdingen towns of Jettenburg am Bachlauf ( Hollbach- Oberlauf) and Mähringen are located around the origin of the main tributary Lumpenbach .

There are other districts of Kusterdingen in the catchment area, namely the northern tip of Immenhausen and all of Wankheim. An industrial area stretches along the middle Lumpenbach run to the right .

geology

The catchment area lies entirely in the Black Jura . Quaternary loess sediment lies on top of it on three quarters of its area on the plateau .
