The source of the river is in the Thuringian Slate Mountains near Neuhaus am Rennweg . The Steinach flows through a narrow valley to the south, in which the town of Steinach is also located. Its gorge-like valley ends at Sonneberg . It opens and turns into a wide meadow landscape; here it also flows through Heubisch . South of Sonneberg it crosses the Thuringian - Bavarian border. At its lower reaches are the places Mitwitz , Marktgraitz and Redwitz , where it flows into the Rodach , which in turn flows into the Main after 2 km .
