It initially flows northwest to the Püttlach pond . There it turns sharply to the south and flows through a wooded section. At Muthmannsreuth it is fed from the left by the Heringsbach and at Heringslohe it flows from the right to the Heroldsgraben. To the west of Trockau is the Herrenmühle and nearby a sewage treatment plant . A little south of the Heddelmühle, the Kohlbrunnbach flows from the right. Near the Hasenloch it is fed from the right by the Pullendorfer Bächlein. It flows through the Püttlach district of the city of Pottenstein . To the south your path leads through fields and meadows to an area with many small ponds. There it is reinforced from the left by the Grießbach.
