List of bodies of water in the Günz river system

The list of bodies of water in the Günz river system contains the list of tributaries and streams of the Günz from the mouth towards the source . In addition, the list contains the branches of the river that split off from the main river and reunite with it further downstream. After the river name, if known, the river code number, the mouth location, with the respective mouth height (in meters above sea level), the length of the river, the size of the catchment area and the difference in altitude from the source to the mouth are given.

The second part of this list lists lakes located in the area of ​​the river system - in the case of the Günz river system, mainly quarry ponds .

Much of the information on this page comes from the websites of the Bavarian State Office for the Environment and the BayernViewer of the Bavarian Surveying Administration .
