The Cornberger Wasser is only 5.7 km long, southern, orographically right tributary of the Sontra in northern Hesse . Its catchment area is only 11.2 km.
The stream rises south of Cornberg in the district of Hersfeld-Rotenburg on the western slope of the Großer Bärenkopf (413 m) in the Richelsdorf mountains . It first flows about 700 m to the north, feeding two small ponds, and then turns to the north-east, about 350 m northeast of the northeast exit of the Cornberger Tunnel on the Bebra-Göttingen railway line . Shortly afterwards, it flows past the site of the former Bubenbach monastery and then along the federal road 27 east past Cornberg and west past the former Cornberg monastery further northeast into Sontraer Land. There the brook flows into the Sontra on the southern outskirts of Berneburg .
The Cornberger Water with the northern Solz and the Bebra forms the border between the Richelsdorf Mountains in the east and the Stölzinger Mountains in the west.
