The Zellbach is a mountain stream in the Gutenstein Alps in the Schneebergland region , and the main body of water in the Rohr im Gebirge community .

Run and landscape

The cell stream rises on Hahnstab ( Kleiner Wildföhrenstein ,  1161  m above sea level ), a northern sub-peak of the Handlesberg  ( 1370  m above sea level ) near Schwarzau in the mountains , in the Bodingschneide . It then runs north-eastwards, picks up the stream from the ridge of the hayloft from the left , and reaches the Rohrer locality of Winsaberg . The Berlgraben from the Winsaberg ( 1008  m above sea level ) and the Koppental from the Streimling ( 1050  m above sea level ), the ridge mountains to the Gutensteiner Klostertal flow here from the right . Then the brook turns to northwest and takes on the Kiensteingraben from the left. Up to this point the stream has covered about 7 kilometers.

Shortly after Winsaberg, the Mausgraben flows from the Rohrer Sattel on the right , and the village and valley cell brook extends for about 2½ kilometers, to the municipal capital Rohr im Gebirge at the confluence of the Rohrgraben and the Klausbach from the right and shortly thereafter the Edlaberggraben to the left Edlaberg  ( 1096  m above sea level ).

From Rohr, the cell stream turns southwest and flows through the district area , a wide valley that extends to Schwarzau-Markt, with which it almost completely circles the Edlaberg. The ridge of the Jochart  ( 1266  m above sea level ) extends to the right on the other side of the valley . From there, the Zottlgraben and the Krumbach come down from the Krumbach location . The common trench comes from Edlaberg and then the long side channel from long side .

Then the valley narrows by a small valley crest, and shortly afterwards, at Gschaiderwirt in the municipality of Schwarzau, the Zellerbach flows after 17½ kilometers from the left into the Schwarza , which comes from the Tiefental between Großenberg and Sulzberg from the west and then southwards flows on.

Historically, it was customary to call the part of the Schwarza above the confluence of the cells “ Trauchbach ” or “ Tiefentalbach ” and to see the beginning of the Schwarza here, sometimes even at Rohr - because that is the main valley - or even at the Rohrer Sattel. The fact that the cell creek as a channel from the Rohrer Sattel is the original concept shows that the creek on the other side is also called cell creek : that the valleys or creeks have the same name on both sides of the pass is found more often in the Alps.

The Gutensteiner Straße (B 21), the connection Wiener Neustadt - Mariazell, runs along the cell stream from Gutenstein and the Rohrer Sattel to Langseite , where it then changes over the Kalte Kuchl to St. Aegyd.
