The Partnach in Garmisch-Partenkirchen

The Partnach is an 18 km long Bavarian mountain river . It rises at 1440  m in the Zugspitze massif . Is fed from the Partnach melt water of the m higher order about 1100 Schneefernerhaus glacier , in the ver karst seeps eten rock bottom and passes back to the surface when Partnachursprung.

Surname

The name Partnach consists of the Indo-European word portn for passage and the Old High German word aha ( Ache together) for a watercourse.

Part origin

The Partnachorsprung

The origin of the Partnach is at 1,440 m, west of the Reintalangerhütte at Ochsensitz. During various measurements in the years 2002–2006, the discharge values ​​of the spring were recorded and documented. The lowest measured discharge (NNQ) - at times the source even fell dry during the measurements - was 400 l / s, the highest measured discharge (HHQ) was 16,770 l / s. The determined values ​​result in the mean low water discharge (MNQ) with 490 l / s, the mean discharge (MQ) with 1,460 l / s and the mean high water discharge (MHQ) with 8,820 l / s for the period 2002–2006.

course

The Partnach then flows down the Reintal , initially in an east-northeast direction along the axis of the Wetterstein Mountains, which are largely drained by them . There she passed through two mountain lakes until 2005 - the Vordere and Hinter Blaue Gumpe . On the former, the Partnach water accumulated on debris from landslides. Heavy rain partially eroded the natural dam and completely filled the lake with sediment; the blue pool therefore no longer exists today.

In the Reintal, which then slowly turns north, the Partnach forms a total of four gorges , the last of which is the well-known and touristic Partnach Gorge . This fourth Partnach Gorge is 720 meters long and up to 80 m deep. Within it, the Partnach, which was previously up to 25 m wide, narrows to often only 5 m wide and falls in a waterfall over a rock step several meters high. Below the incline, it has formed whirlpool pots several meters deep . In the center it flows through a rock gate .

On the northern outskirts of Garmisch-Partenkirchen the Partnach flows out at 690  m above sea level. NN from the right into the Loisach . It has an absolute gradient of almost 740 m over a distance of 18 km and a mean relative bed gradient of around 41 ‰. Up to the outskirts of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, the Partnach is a near-natural river. From there to the confluence with the Loisach, its banks are built up with stone and block embankments and thus defined. The Partnach has to be crossed on several footbridges and bridges . The first leads across the river at the Bockhütte in Reintal, the second and third just before the entrance to the Partnach Gorge. Two footbridges also let you look deep into the gorge itself. Behind the gorge, in Garmisch-Partenkirchen and on the southern outskirts, a total of 10 road and pedestrian bridges and 2 railway bridges make it possible to cross the Partnach.
