Summary[edit]

Description
Deutsch: Mehrere Karstquellen entspringen als Schichtquellen des „Seichten Karsts“ aus dem Hang, der sich unterhalb der steilen Traufkante befindet. Traufkante, Wald und Quellspalten befinden sich noch im Naturschutzgebiet Rutschen. Die Quellen treten aus dem Mittleren Weißjura-Mergel zur Unteren Felsenkalk-Formation (ki1 und ki2) aus. Unmittelbar unterhalb der Quellen entstand im frühen Holozän, als Sedimentation, eine große Terrasse aus rezentem Kalktuff. Hier enstand um 1300 ein Kloster, welches zuletzt zum Orden der Kartäuser gehörte, bis die Gebäude ca. um 1550 im Zuge der Reformation abgetragen wurden. Am Rand der „Hochwiese“ entstand die Kalktuffnase.
Die imposante Terrasse und die weiteren Ablagerungen aus Kalktuff erhielt den Namen „Güterssteiner Wasserfall bei der „Ehemaligen Kartause Güterstein“. Die Quelle, die Terrasse, die Nase und der Wasserfall können mit dem gleichen Sedimentphänomen des Uracher Wasserfalls in Zusammenhang gebracht werden. Die Quellschüttungen sind jahreszeitlich schwankend.

English: The visible karst springs emerge from an impounded layer (marl) in the rock wall of the „Albtrauf“ (escarpment of the Swabian Alb) near Bad Urach. The springs feed enormous amounts of chemically precipitated Calcareous tuff, in several different forms of sediment, from freshwater at ambient temperature. Further down the precipitated sediment covers moss, that continues to grow, forming a prominent buldge. Thereafter, dripping down a steep slope, more calcium carbonate is precipitated, forming a sludgy mass, in which leaves, small branches and other debris are deposited. The location is called “Gütersteiner Wasserfall”.
