The Lemp is an almost 12 km long left tributary of the Dill in the Lahn-Dill district , Central Hesse . Below its source, it forms a natural border between the Hörre (northwest) and the Krofdorf-Königsberger Forest (east), both sub- natural areas of the Gladenbacher Bergland .

course

The source of the Lemp is located in the municipality of Hohenahr , just under 2 km south-southwest of Großaltenstädten and a good 2 km west-southwest of Hohensolms . From there, the river initially flows in a westerly direction through a forest in the western north of the Krofdorf-Königsberger Forest and reaches the district of Asslar .

When you leave the forest in Oberlemp , where the Bermoll brook flows in from the right , the Lemp forms the natural boundary to the Hörre on the right-hand side up to its mouth . While the forest of the Hörre always remains about a kilometer away from the river, that of the Krofdorf-Königsberger Forest continues directly on the left.

Immediately after passing Oberlemp, the Westerlemp flowing in from the right forms the border to the Ehringshausen community , whose district the river will no longer leave from now on.

After crossing Niederlemp , the Lemp flows again from the right, first the Roßbach and then the Amstelbach coming from Dreisbach . Here the course of the river experiences a turn from west to south (southwest).

In Kölschhausen the Kölschhäuser Bach flows from the right , immediately after the place from the left the Breitenbach , which comes from the district of the same name .

To the north of Ehringshausen, the Lemp leaves the forest and at the same time the two more montane natural areas into the Lower Dill Valley , to flow into the Dill in the south of the village from the left .
