geography
course
The Kinzig rises at an altitude of 317 m above sea level. NHN in a field southwest of a group of buildings northeast of the hamlet of Gumpersberg and north-northwest of the village of Ober-Kinzig . Both localities together with Mittel-Kinzig form the Ober-Kinzig district of the city of Bad König .
It flows first in a south-southeast, then in a southerly direction through grassland along the eastern edge of Ober-Kinzig. In the middle of the village, it is reinforced on the right by the Gumpersbergerbach coming from the village of the same name . From there it is sometimes called Gumpersbergerbach itself. At Mittel-Kinzig the Tiefenwiesengraben flows into it, which some also call Gumpersbergerbach to increase confusion.
It then changes more and more to the east and runs through meadows and fields, which are bordered on the right and left by forest. Shortly before it reaches the Nieder-Kinzig district of Bad Koenig , it is fed south of the Geisberg from the right by the Balsbach . From there she is only called Kinzig again.
It now passes the village in an easterly direction, then moves between the Sommerberg in the north and the Kinzinger Berg in the south through grassland and then reaches the western edge of the Bad Koenig district of Etzen-Gesäß .
It flows through the village, crosses under the tracks of the Odenwaldbahn and finally flows out at an altitude of 169 m above sea level. NHN directly north of Brombachtaler Straße from the left and west into Mümling, which is approaching from the south .
Its run, 6.0 km long, ends about 148 meters below its source, so it has a mean bed gradient of 25 ‰.
