The Schochenbach is a creek less than two kilometers long in the Black Forest in the area of ​​the city of Furtwangen in the Black Forest in the Schwarzwald-Baar district in southwest Baden-Württemberg , which flows into the upper Breg from the right and finally east at the Untere Steinhalde residential area of the city .

geography

course

The Schochenbach arises at the Furtwangen settlement site Raben on Rabenstrasse (Hotel Goldener Raben) at about 1020  m above sea level. NHN and flows between forests on the slopes, initially through wet meadows and then mostly in a meadow for about the first third of its course northwards and takes in four shorter tributaries from the side, of which only the longest with about 0.3 km has its own small one Nebental has trained. Then it unites near a single forwarding yard with its left and north-western upper course, which is about 0.6 km long and rises near the prong Ladstatt of the community of Gütenbach in the forest, and turns to the east course. In Untertal, which is also framed by forest, there are a few houses closer to the run, after which the tree line hikes up the slope. Finally, the Schochenbach flows into the Untere Steinhalde residential area of ​​Furtwangen at around 1020  m above sea level. NHN from the right and west into the upper Breg .

The Schochenbach flows after a 1.8 km long run with a mean bottom gradient of about 79 ‰, about 140 meters in altitude below its origin.

Catchment area

The Schochenbach drains an approximately 1.3 km² area with a triangular contour, which in natural terms belongs to the sub-area of ​​the Southeastern Black Forest of the Black Forest and is predominantly forested, with the exception of only the narrow open corridor of the valley for the longest stretch and a height strip near Ladstatt along the western part Watershed where meadows lie. The little over 1100  m above sea level. NHN highest point is on the northwest tip near the origin of the left upper reaches.

This hydrologically most important watershed in the west is a section of the European main watershed between the Breg , Danube and Black Sea on this side and Kilpenbach or Teichbach and further on Wilder Gutach , Elz and North Sea on the other side. The runoff behind the north-north-eastern watershed reaches the Breg via similarly small streams like the Schochenbach, the one behind the south-south-east slightly downwards, partly over a little longer, and the rear Breg also the Breg.

The subsoil is the paragneiss of the southern Black Forest; some granite porphyry dykes in it strike mostly north-northeast.

With the exception of small gussets on the large watershed in the west, behind which the area of ​​the municipality of Gütenbach begins, the area lies entirely in the central urban area of ​​Furtwangen.

Nature and protected areas

The catchment area lies entirely in the Southern Black Forest Nature Park and almost entirely in the "Katzensteig Furtwangen" water protection area . Up to the beginning of its eastward course and later on a section, the stream is again quite close to nature, as are parts of tributaries. Its headwaters at Taben lie in wide wet meadows, some of which follow its course again later. Above the houses on the middle east run, on both sides of the tree line on the middle slope, there are winged gorse - grassland areas.

climate

There are cold, snowy winters (down to −27 ° C and up to 2.5 m snow depth , measured in 2006) and warm, sunny summers (up to +36 ° C, measured in 1996).

colonization

The side valley of the Upper Valley section of the Breg called Schochenbach called Katzensteig is a residential area of ​​Furtwangen with loose settlement. The building stock includes five houses or farmsteads and some sheds. It is inhabited by around 30 people.
