The Schwälblesklinge is a small notch valley in the Kaltental district of Stuttgart . The origins and backgrounds are explained on a geographical educational trail using display boards. In the Schwälblesklinge there are clear weathering hollows, which clearly illustrate the erosion processes in the formation of layered landscapes and so-called blades .
A creek of the same name, almost a kilometer long, flows through the Schwälblesklinge and flows into the Nesenbach in Stuttgart-Süd .
Location and origin
The Schwälblesklinge begins on the north-western edge of the Sonnenberg district , runs westward and flows into the Nesenbach valley at the northern end of Kaltental . It has a length of around one kilometer. To the right above their incision is the Stuttgart Forest Cemetery .
The Schwälblesklinge was mainly formed by deep erosion during the last ice age . In order to protect the forest path that runs right next to the stream, the bank and stream bed were built. In addition to the sandstones and marls to the east, there are also shell limestone and granite in the stream bed . To regulate the flow of water, shell limestone was first introduced, later granite was introduced as a " rough ramp " as part of a near-natural river design . When it rains heavily, the valley becomes even wider and deeper.
