The Berste is a left tributary of the Spree , which flows southeast of Berlin in the state of Brandenburg .

The Berste rises in several source streams on the northeastern edge of the Lusatian border wall and flows across Luckau north into the Baruther glacial valley and then, turning east, towards the Spree north of Lübben .

In Luckau, two arms of the Berste unite behind the moat: the Goßmarer Fließ coming from the south-west and the actual Berste, which rises south in the Weißack district of the municipality of Heideblick and is also known as the Altes Fließ up to Beesdau . Sometimes the Goßmarer Fließ is also referred to as Berste. This arises from the confluence of the mill streams Gehrener Mühlenfließ and Waltersdorfer Fließ , at which a total of over a dozen water mills are located. Their sources are located to the west of the Dresden Railway embankment on the eastern edge of the Niederlausitzer Landücken Nature Park . Another water arm of the little river Goßmarer the coal digging coming from Bornsdorf and receives water of the source streams and ditches of the districts or corridors Weißack, Trebbinchen, Bornsdorf, green wood, and partly of miter and Walter village.

The southern Quellbach flows from the heights of the Niederlausitzer Landrückens first through the Bornsdorf district of the municipality of Heideblick. Further south, the area of ​​the nearby Bornsdorf ponds is crossed, and then in a north-easterly direction the lowlands of the Borcheltsbusch nature reserve , which is known as a resting place for cranes , are reached. After that, the now diked Berste flows north to Luckau, where, after having circled the Calau suburb behind the city moat, it absorbs the water of the Goßmarer river. From Luckau onwards, the bursts up to the confluence with the Spree are heavily drained and regulated because of the risk of flooding and the partly swampy terrain.
