The Ramsaubach (also called Ramsauer Bach ) is a small brook on the Zeller- or Irrsee in Mondseeland , part of the Salzkammergut in the Hausruckviertel of Upper Austria .

Run and landscape

The stream rises about 1½ kilometers east of the lake near Zell am Moos , below Oberbrandstatt at about 690  m above sea level. A. It then passes Niederbrandstatt to the north, takes up the ditch from Stumer , swings almost to the north and flows through between Oberschwand and Unterschwand .

In Ramsau , 1½ kilometers north of Zell am Moos, at Mondsee Straße  (B154), the Wolfbauergraben (von Staller and Feichten ) flows towards it from the right . 400 meters further west it flows south of the Mooswiesen near Ramsau and Graben after a good 2 kilometers into the Irrsee.

Geology and hydrography

The stream comes from the peripheral moraine of the Dachstein glacier of the Würm Ice Age (approx. 100,000-10,000 years before today), the last glacial period, which left a mighty wall west of the Irrsee that is well preserved from the Lackenberg to the Haslau . Young Vöckla was squeezed in behind it . To the north of the Mühle im Graben , the watershed is only 50 meters from the Vöckla. The north-westerly course is unusual here: the Mondsee- Irrsee area represents the post-glacial retreat of the Dachstein glacier tongue , and therefore drains into the Alps (“upside down”, the water only flows back towards the edge of the Alps from the Attersee). Most of the small feeders also follow this. Ramsaubach and south of the Zeller Bach go in the opposite direction. It is likely to be a matter of running formations in the late Würmzeit glacier retreat - apron . Along the brook, further marginal moraines of various retreat stages extend in several seasons, which run into the lake in the mouth of the Ramsau brook. The brook turns northwards on the third moraine line from the lake shore, these moraines form the somewhat elevated lake fields , to which wet meadows lie north and south just above lake level ( Zeller Moos south and the Mooswiesen from Ramsau northward). A bar runs straight through the Irrsee directly north of the estuary at 21 meters below the water level (the two partial basins of the lake are now 32 meters north and 27 meters south). The brook may have flowed into the northern part of the basin at times.
