The Susebek is an orographically right tributary to the Alster in the Hamburg district of Hummelsbüttel .

It rises in the nature reserve Hummelsbütteler Moore just south of the Hummelsee and flows within the nature reserve first to the south, then turns to the west and then back to the south. By crossing under the Poppenbütteler Weg ( Ring 3 ), it reaches the built-up areas of Hamburg that surround the lower half of its course, which here in a very narrow valley has a significantly more gradient than the upper section. It flows through two retention basins, between which it receives its only tributary, the Hummelsbüttler Schulgraben , and finally flows into the Alster in Teetzpark.

In the ponds of Susebek live pike , eels , moderlieschen , roach and rudd , also perch , bream , gudgeon and tench .

The name of the Susebek is derived from the Low German suusen , which means "to whisper".

A passenger ship of the Alster tourism was named after the Susebek - like after some tributaries of the Alster .
