course

The Kleine Steinau rises in the Upper Harz in the Harz Nature Park in the southeast of the Acker ridge , which is a maximum of 690  m above sea level. NHN is high. Its source is about 6.5 km east-southeast of Osterode am Harz, which is not traversed by the stream, between the Schindelkopf in the northwest and the Spießerklippe in the southeast at an altitude of about 640  m .

First, the Kleine Steinau flows  in a westerly direction , then - when you pass the Katzenklippe - in a south-westerly direction and a little later in a southerly direction through the wooded Harz landscape. After the confluence of the Große Schweimke and passing the forester's house Rehhagen , it leaves the nature park by crossing under the Herzberg – Seesen railway line and the 243 federal road in quick succession . The stream enters the southwestern Harz foreland .

A little after passing under the district roads  7 ( Mühleberg - Aschenhütte ) and 27 (Osterode am resin Herzberg ) opens the Small Steinau about 3.3 km northwest of Herzberg and 750 m west-northwest the mouth of the Great Steinau when Hördener Weiler Aschenhütte on around 210  m above sea level in the Sieber tributary of the Oder , which flows from the southeast .
