It is an approximately 27 km long river, the source of which is the Beesegraben, which rises at Beesewege . The Beesegraben enters the broad, formerly brittle valley near Kläden and is now called the Schau- or Secantsgraben up to the confluence with the Milde near Butterhorst .

Parts of the boundaries of several districts in the Stendal district are formed by the Secantsgraben, for example the northern boundary of Badingen or the southern boundary of Holzhausen and Berkau.
