Location of wooden sticks
state Baden-Württemberg

The wood sticks are elongated, wooded in north-south direction, up to about 700  m above sea level. NN high and 381.9 square kilometers, Riedel-like (high) terrace landscape of the Danube-Iller-Lech-Platte in the Alpine foothills . They extend not far south-west of Ulm in the Alb-Danube district and in the Biberach district in Upper Swabia and tower over the valley floors by around 75 m.

geography

Geographical location

The wood sticks in the broader sense extend as a flat hill country between the rivers Iller in the east and Riss in the west; to the south they protrude until just before the Aitrach , to the north they flatten towards the Danube . They mainly consist of the catchment areas of the upper and middle reaches of the north and north-west flowing rivers Weihung (from the source south of Wains to Staig- Steinberg), Rot ( Haslach from the source via Haslach to the confluence in Rot an der Rot , Rot further via Schwendi to Burgrieden-Rot ) and Rottum (from south of Ochsenhausen to Mietingen ); to the southwest they end with the valley of the Dürnach near Maselheim .

Usually only the wooden sticks in the narrower sense are drawn as such on maps, see below .

Natural structure

According to the structure of the handbook of the natural spatial structure of Germany and the refinements of the individual sheets Ulm and Lindau , the wooden sticks are structured as follows:

  • 043 wooden sticks
    • 043.0 (0) Wooden sticks in the narrower sense
    • 043.1 red plates
      • 043.10 Lower terraces of the Rot-Platten
      • 043.11 Erlenmoser plate
      • 043.12 Heggbacher plate
      • 043.13 Terraces and hills on the Dürnach
      • 043.14 Haslach plates
      • 043.15 Erolzheim hill country

The partial landscapes of the Donau-Iller-Lech-Platte

The wooden sticks in the narrower sense are the north-north- eastern part on both sides of the consecration around Wain . They reach west to the valley of the Rot and south to the immediate west of Erolzheim .
To the west, the lower terraces of the Rot-Platten adjoin the valleys of Rottum and Rot in a horseshoe shape from the north around the 30 m higher Erlenmoser Platte with Erlenmoos and Ochsenhausen oaks.
West of Rottum the closing Heggbacher plate to Heggbach on that west to the terraces and hills on the Dürnach in Maselheim encounters.
To the south of the wooden sticks in the narrower sense , the Erolzheimer hill country to the west of Erolzheim and Berkheim leads in a narrow riedel to the Haslach-Platten on both sides of the Haslach around Haslach .

To the northwest, the landscape flattens towards the (eastern) hill country of the Untere Riss (042.2) near Laupheim , while it rises to the southeast to the old moraine ( old moraine area between Riss and Rottum . 041.2) of the Riss-Aitrach plates (041) ( Wachbühl : 791 m). To the east, the drop to the Lower Illertal (044) is clear with a conspicuously north-south-oriented dividing line.

Surveys

In the southern part of the wooden sticks near Aitrach, the altitude from the north ranges from around 500  m above sea level. NN near Illerkirchberg gradually rising to the south within the framework of unnamed elevations and hills up to the 700 meter contour line .

The named elevations of the wooden sticks also include - sorted by height in meters (m) above sea ​​level (NN):

Forest use

The proportion of forest in the logs is one of the highest in the region. The area around Illerkirchberg was last cleared in the 18th century.

Around 1882 the Kingdom of Württemberg required the inhabitants of the wooden sticks to cut the wood and deliver it to the kingdom. Despite the wooded valleys, the area was largely populated by poor people. In order to defy the king, the forest owners cut down the trees four feet above the floor , thereby fulfilling the king's request and allowing the residents to use the lower, more valuable part of the trunk for themselves.
