geography

course

The Würmtal between Aidlingen and Dätzingen with a view south towards Aidlingen

The Würm arises from two source streams, which arise in Schönbuch south of Hildrizhausen ("Hildrizhauser Würm") and south of Altdorf ("Altdorfer Würm"). A few kilometers after their union, it enters the Upper Gau near Ehningen , which it flows through in a slightly sunk, winding valley in a north-northwest direction. Around Weil der Stadt , the most important place on its banks, the valley is spacious and open. At Tiefenbronn-Mühlhausen it reaches the natural area of the Black Forest edge plates, which is characterized by the contiguous coniferous forest . In the further course, the slopes of the winding valley become gradually higher until the Würm on the southern outskirts of Pforzheim in the northern Black Forest flows into the Nagold , just before its own confluence with the Enz .

The Würm flows from its source to its mouth through the following places:

Data

The Würm is 53.9 kilometers long and supplies the Nagold with an average of around 3 m³ / s of water from a 418.3 km² catchment area; This makes it the largest tributary of the Nagold in terms of volume, length and catchment area. The gradient between the source and the mouth is about 250 meters.

traffic

The 49 km long Würmtal cycle path has been running through the entire Würmtal since 2009.

The Würm in the Aidlinger Valley

At Ehningen the federal highway 81 crosses the Würmtal with the Würmtalbrücke .
