Summary
| Description |
Ελληνικά: καρστική πηγή, Αχαΐα, Πελοπόννησος. Από το αμμώδες χαλίκι εκρέει μια πηγή υπό την σκιά φυλλοβολών δέντρων. Το νερό προέρχεται από τα ανθρακικά βουνά Αροάνια (1500-2300 μέτρα). Σε μια επιφάνεια χαλικιού μόλις 30x800 μέτρων πολλά μικρά ρυάκια ενώνονται σε ένα εντυπωσιακά μεγάλο ρεύμα: Ο Αροάνιος ποταμός. Δυστυχώς αυτό το σπάνιου είδους γεώτοπου δεν χαίρει της προστασίας του νομού. Στενά οικονομικά συμφέροντα για τουριστική εκμετάλλευση κυριαρχούν το τοπίο. English: karst springs, Achaea, Peloponnese. The springs emerge partly from hard and partly from loose sediment, a ground of sandy gravel, well shaded by broad-leaved trees. The water comes from the carbonate Aroania Mountains (1500- 2341 m) and also from joints fed by the katavothren (Greek term for ponors/sinkholes) of the Feneos depression. On a surface of only 30x800 m many tiny outflows result in a remarkable large brook: River Aroanios. Unfortunately this rare kind of a geotope is not protected at all! No directives, no administrative surveillance! The place is dominated by tourist-commercial interests. Deutsch: Karstquelle (Achaia, Peloponnes). Aus sandig-kiesigem Lockersediment flächig entspringende Quelle, westlich des "Aroania/Chelmos", einem Hochgebirge (1500-2341 m). Dieses Karbonatmassiv produziert große Karstquellen, die in allen vier Himmelsrichtungen Flüsse, u.a. auch den See Stymfalia, speisen. Auf einer von Laubbäumen verschatteten Fläche von nur 30x800 m haben viele kleine im Kies aufbrechende Gerinne bereits einen großen, wasserreichen Bach gebildet: den Fluss Aroanios. Das Gelände wird leider überhaupt nicht (natur-)geschützt oder behördlich kontrolliert (Stand:2006, 2014). Dieses Juwel eines Naturdenkmals wird von touristisch-kommerziellen Interessen dominiert! |
