The stream bed is scree with rapids and pools . The good water quality is attested by many insect larvae and planarians . In the lower reaches also reeds and butterbur plants occur in places . The brook is often accompanied by trees along the banks of the alder . Natural fish ponds can also be found in the lower reaches. On the lower slopes there are still extensive, species-rich, mostly grazed areas of poor grassland. Will also come Bärwurz , Heilziest and arnica before (in the middle reaches).
