The Sissle is a creek around 18 kilometers long in the canton of Aargau in Switzerland . It is a tributary of the Rhine and drains the eastern part of the Fricktal . The largest town on the stream is Frick .
The stream rises in the municipal areas of Schinznach and Thalheim at an altitude of 650 m above sea level. M. on the southern slope of the Dreierberg and northern slope of the Zeiher Homberg, in the middle of the Jura . Shortly after the source, the stream breaks through a gorge between the Dreierberg and the Zeiher Homberg and then falls off quickly. It passes the Talmatt and delimits the Zeiher district of Iberg. After about two and a half kilometers, the Sissle passes the west portal of the Bözberg tunnel with the Effingen train station at a height of 450 meters . There it had to be canalized as a result of the construction of the railway line.
From here on, the gradient is rather flat and the stream initially follows the A3 motorway freely flowing, but canalised to Hornussen . The canalized section extends to Eiken , where the stream changes its direction of flow from northwest to north and enters the Rhine plain. In Frick , it takes on the Bruggbach coming from Wittnau on the left. The last two and a half kilometers the Sissle meanders strongly and flows into the Upper Rhine near the village of Sisseln , at an altitude of 290 meters.
