Its source is in the municipality of Söhrewald between the Franzosentriesch (approx.  490  m above sea  level ) in the southwest and the Kleiner Belgerkopf (approx.  490  m ) belonging to the municipality of Helsa in the northeast near the Lobesrode desert at an altitude of about 458  m .

The eastward flowing men's water, which flows into the municipality of Helsa a few hundred meters below its origin, initially runs through the Heubruchwiesen nature reserve near Eschenstruth (NSG No. 163667), which was founded in 1989 and is 51.49 hectares in size. Afterwards, a small stream flows between the Helsa villages Sankt Ottilien and Eschenstruth , which comes from Sankt Ottilien, located southwest of the male water.
