The Bilsbek is a right brook of the Pinnau . It rises in the Himmelmoor between Shirtingen and Quickborn and flows through the communities of Ellerhoop , Borstel-Hohenraden , Tornesch and Prisdorf . The Bilsbek lowland represents an important natural area, although the Bilsbek was partially regulated in earlier years. There are still wet meadows and floodplains on the edge of the Bilsbek. The Bilsbek flows into the Pinnau at river kilometers 15.4. On its lower course, the Bilsbek forms the border between the municipality of Prisdorf and the city of Tornesch; it flows into the Pinnau at the triangle of these municipalities with the municipality of Appen .
There is a water board Pinnau-Bilsbek-Gronau, a riding club Bilsbek and the MSC Bilsbek.
