It is long and a tributary of the Kleine Steinau, north of Herzberg am Harz in the district of Göttingen. It rises at about 602 m above sea level and south of the Schindelkopf and roughly north of the Weinbergstraße road on the ridge known as Auf dem Acker. It flows initially in a southwesterly direction before swinging west and discharging into the Kleine Steinau.
