The Steinsiekbach , also Steinsieksbach , is a right, around 3.4 kilometers long tributary of the Werre in Herford in the northeast of the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia .
The water is part of the Weser river system and drains a small part of the Ravensberg hill country .
The Steinsieksbach, which rises above the zoo in the Salzufler Stadtforst in a washed-out Siek , got its name because of the many large boulders lying in the creek bed .
