course
The Altefeld rises under the name Black River on the eastern flank of the 773 m above sea level. NN high Taufstein in Vogelsberg . The source is around 637 m above sea level. NN high within the Vogelsbergkreis and the nature park Hoher Vogelsberg in the Köhlerwald near Urborn . The Black River flows eastwards and soon takes on other, sometimes longer, source streams.
After leaving the forest area, the Black River flows through Hochwaldhausen and Ilbeshausen , which are combined as the district of Ilbeshausen-Hochwaldhausen in the larger municipality of Grebenhain . Below Ilbeshausen, the small Haselbach joins from the left . Here the river changes its name to Altfell and flows through Altenschlirf . Below Altenschlirf, it takes the final name Altefeld and next flows through the village of Schlechtenwegen .
At Stockhausen the Altefeld takes on its largest tributary from the left, the Alte Hasel , crosses Stockhausen, leaves the nature park and then in a north-easterly direction reaches Müs , a district of Großenlüder .
After the mouth of the Mühlenbach on the left , the Altefeld continues northwards through Bad Salzschlirf , where it rises to 238.7 m above sea level. NN combined with the Lauter to Schlitz coming from the west , which flows into the Fulda after 13.3 km from the left .
