The Ohe arises in the Hümmling from a partially cased ditch a little above the nature reserve "Oberlauf der Ohe" in the area of the Emsland community Spahnharrenstätte.

Tributaries

The Loruper Beeke flows into the Ohe south of the Hümmling community of Esterwegen . Furthermore, numerous trenches flow into the Ohe.

muzzle

The Ohe flows a few meters south of the coastal canal , in Neuscharrel , with the Marka and forms the Sagter Ems .

Energy use

In the 19th and 20th centuries, the power of the flowing water of the Ohe was increased by several mills , such as B. used by the no longer existing fulling mill in Börger.

tourism

The Ohe area is characterized by "gentle" tourism . In the Börger district, part of the Hümmling pilgrimage route leads past the banks of the stream.
