The Schlierbach is a forest body of water in the Schurwald forest with numerous tributaries, which roughly follows the border between the Esslingen district and the Rems-Murr district in central Baden-Württemberg . After running for more than 4 km, it flows roughly in a south-westerly direction on the edge of Baach in the urban area of Weinstadt from the right into the main branch of the lower Rems tributary, the Schweizerbach, which is still called Gunzenbach or Beutelsbach .

geography

Names

A map from the middle of the 19th century labels the river Schlierbach called Schlierbach below its tributary Rackenbrunnenbach with the name Schlierbach. There, the main strand of the Schweizerbach that takes it up is labeled as Schlierbach on a section noticeably below the Schlierbach estuary before Schnait . At least the course of the Rackenbrunnenbach near its mouth seems to be called Schlierbach from time to time. According to the latest official topographical map, the Schlierbach main line bears his name even before the Rackenbrunnenbach tributary.

Several names compete for the main strand of the receiving Swiss Bach in the area of ​​the estuary, Gunzenbach , Beutelbach , maybe also Krummhärtlesbach . According to the above, the first piece after the confluence was perhaps also called Schlierbach earlier and this was then probably seen as the more important upper course.

course

The Schlierbach arises in the southern area of ​​the Remstal community Winterbach near the intersection of the L 1150 Winterbach– Esslingen am Neckar with the so-called Kaiserstraße (here K 1865), which climbed the Schurwald heights from Weinstadt - Schnait via Winterbach- Manolzweiler and now along the watershed between Rems in the north and Fils in the south to the Kaiserberge area . The source is about 458  m above sea level. NHN am Arboretum am Goldboden over a kilometer southeast of Manolzweiler, just west of the L 1150 and a little below a pool in the Mödach clearing square , which borders the other side of the street.

The stream now flows for a long time in the forest, at the very beginning southwest, runs through a small pond and after three quarters of a kilometer takes in an almost as long left source stream from the southeast, also from the L 1150. Here a forest path descends from the left slope into the valley floor and from now on constantly accompanies the Schlierbach, which runs on its remaining upper course first west and then south-west through the surrounding forest area, between the large tubs of Bonstallhau on the right and Martinshalde on the left. To see the path he takes some forest sound brooks of left and right with consistently below one kilometer, which often continue auffiedern located on the upper reaches. What is particularly noticeable on this section is the short flow of the Martinsquelle on the left lower slope, which runs over mossy sintered steps and then on a sintered cone to the Schlierbach.

About two and a half kilometers after the source, the largest right tributary Rackenbrunnenbach flows from the north at about 319  m above sea level. NHN , which arises west of Manholzweiler on the saddle of the Nonnenberg and takes in numerous tributaries along its course of just over two kilometers. About three hundred meters further down the valley in a south-west direction follows at 313.3  m above sea level. NHN a slightly smaller left tributary from the Gewann Martinshalde, which begins its course on the edge of the Höhenrodungsinsel around Baltmannsweiler - Hohengehren . The largest left tributary is after a last kilometer in the forest at 313.3  m above sea level. NHN the Sandpeterbach ; it arises near the southwest edge of Hohengehren and flows out at the border to the open valley floor around Baach, into which the Schlierbach now crosses for its last half kilometer.

A hundred meters further on, the Mühlbach, which initially runs parallel to one another, branches off to the left . The Schlierbach empties at about 284  m above sea level. NHN at a pond and below a footbridge on the eastern edge of the small town of Baach, part of the municipality of the Weinstadt district of Schnait, from the right into the main line of the Schweizerbach , which is probably called Gunzenbach or Beutelbach before and maybe a little later and whose largest tributary is the Schlierbach . The Mühlbach, on the other hand, bends around the mouth of the spur and crosses the Gunzenbach in order to then feed the Baacher Mühlbach , which accompanies the main line of the Schweizerbach on the left and flows further down into it.

The 4.4 km long Schlierbach flows about 174 meters below its source, its mean bed gradient is about 40 ‰.

Catchment area

The Schlierbach has a 7.1 km² catchment area in the Schurwald , which in natural terms is a sub-area of ​​the Schurwald and Welzheimer Forest . In the greater part of the area there are rocks of the upper Mittelkeuper , from the Stubensandstein ( Löwenstein Formation ) up to the Marl ( Trossingen Formation ). Even higher are in a marginal arc from the north, where the Nonnenberg east of Schnait wears an isolated such cap, sometimes continuously over the mountain ridge from Manolzweiler to the gold soil at the eastern tip of the catchment area and then back westwards over the ridge of Hohengehren and Baltmannsweiler up to the southern tip of the catchment area a layered Black Jurassic plateau. On the gold soil and more extensively between Hohengehren and Baltmannsweiler there is still a loess sediment island from Quaternary deposits on this Mesozoic layer package .

The greatest heights in the catchment area are on this eastern arc section of the total watershed: the Nonnenberg reaches 471.3  m above sea level. NHN , in the Keupersattel Altwiese the terrain briefly sinks to 440.1  m above sea level. NHN , near the Manolzweiler water tower, it is then again at 478.6  m above sea level. NHN and up to the Goldboden it is again at 463  m above sea level. NHN fallen. After a little up and down it reaches 476  m above sea level a little north of Hohengehren . NHN and after a saddle about 445  m above sea level. NHN between Hohengehren and Baltmannsweiler it reaches in its north at the southern tip of the catchment area again almost 450  m above sea level. NHN . The western watershed in the Keuper, which connects the endpoints of this arch, is mostly below 400  m above sea level. NHN .

Competitors outside are the left Rems tributaries from the northern to the eastern tip from the Lochbach, which rises on the Nonnenberg, up to the Lehnenbach, which flows into Winterbach . Behind the subsequent Hohengehrener and Baltmannsweiler ridges, the Reichenbach gathers its headwaters and tributaries, it drains to the next higher, larger Neckar tributary after the Rems, the Fils . To the west of the catchment area all competitors run to the Schweizererbach main line, first above the Schlierbach itself the Ofenbach to its Gunzenbach section, then below the Bach from the Vogtsklinge and the Brenkelesbach ; these are all comparatively short.

The municipality of Baltmannsweiler in the east has a share of the catchment area with a little over half and the part to the left of the course; the municipality of Winterbach with a little over a quarter and essentially the northeastern part of the catchment area between upper Schlierbach and its largest and right inlet Rackenbrunnenbach . The smallest area of ​​almost a fifth on the western edge is held by the town of Weinstadt , west of the Rackenbrunnenbach run and in the only small clearing island at the mouth.

Over three quarters of the catchment area is forested, only the parts of the high clearance islands on the Schwarzjura ridge around Winterbach- Manolzweiler in the northeast and above all around Baltmannsweiler- Hohengehren in the east, whose settlement areas partially extend into the area. In addition, there is a share in the small valley clearing island around Weinstadt- Baach ; this place is on the outside of the catchment area border.

In the Schlierbach's tributary system, the numerous, sometimes small, steep and inconsistent water-bearing Keuper- sounding watercourses with a feathery sound, are at most about 1.5 m wide. Some of them show sintering on the upper reaches . In some places there is sandy sediment in the creek beds, in other places they show a stony bottom.

Since no disturbances are shown in the relevant area on this Internet map, extrapolation to the eastern part of the catchment area, which is naturally higher than the mouth, outside the square of the more precise map is permissible. The strata from Keuper to Black Jura is typical of the Schurwald landscape, it can be recognized both morphologically and through the change in management.
