The Lottbek is a strongly meandering and near-natural stream in the Stormarn district and in Hamburg . It flows into the Bredenbek , which, as the left tributary of the Alster, together with the Rodenbek and other smaller streams, forms the meltwater river system in the Rodenbeck spring valley , which was formed during the Vistula Ice Age . Like most other rivers in the Quellenental, the Lottbek also flows in an east-west direction towards the Alster.
The source rivers of the Lottbek are the Moorbek and the Deepenreisengraben. In the upper reaches the Lottbek forms a small reservoir. Lottbek and Moorbek mark the border between Hamburg and Schleswig-Holstein for several kilometers .
Due to flooding, a diversion of the Lottbek creek bed in the Lottbek district of Ammersbek was examined between 2005 and 2009 and discussed with Hamburg. After 2009 the plans to relocate the stream bed were not pursued any further.
The Lottbek is named for the district of Lottbek in the municipality of Ammersbek at the Hoisbüttel underground station and several streets and paths in this district and in Hamburg- Ohlstedt . From the Heidkoppelmoor nature reserve and the surrounding area downstream, the stream is accompanied by hiking trails that, except in the Hamburger Straße area in Lottbek, run continuously close to the stream.
