Summary

[edit]
Description
Deutsch: Schlichem, Gefällsstrecke mit Wassertreppen im Oberen Muschelkalk. 3,5km vor der Mündung des insgesamt gefällsreichen Mittelgebirgsflusses, der von Osten in den Neckar fließt, hat der noch weitgehend naturnahe Fluss eine Schleife um einen Umlaufberg aufgegeben und an der Durchbruchstelle (Weiler Butschhof) eine Schichttreppe mit einem Gefälle von 10m geschaffen. Der Wasserstand des Flusses ist stark schwankend.
Das steil bis zum Mittleren Muschelkalk in die Schichten des Mittleren Jura, Unterjura und Keuper eingeschnittene Schlichemtal ist von der Mündung bis zur Autobahn A81 (6,7km) seit 1993 als Naturschutzgebiet 3.194 „Schlichemtal“ geschützt. Das reich strukturierte Tal gilt als einzigartiges erd- und landschaftsgeschichtliches Dokument. Es zeichnet sich aus durch steile Felsbildungen, Steppenheiden, Schafweiden, Magerrasen, Feuchtwiesen, verschiedene Waldtypen und ist Lebensraum für eine Vielzahl seltener und gefährdeter Tier- und Pflanzenarten.

English: Schlichem. When entering the resistant Muschelkalk, 8,8km before flowing into river Neckar, the Schlichem begins to meander heavely. One big loop (3,5km before entering the Neckar) was completed in Quaternary by a breakthrough of the two closest parts of the bend, producing a steep drop of 10m, while the loop fell dry. Erosion in the resistant beds of Muschekalk formed 4 steps.
The last 6,7km to the river’s mouth are the Naturschutzgebiet “Schlichemtal”. The protected area is considered an extraordinary example of landscape and geology. There are impressive rockwalls, calcareous grassland, wet meadows, varying forests and habitats for endangered species of flora and fauna.
