geography

course

The Syrbach arises north of Surré at an altitude of about 360 m from the confluence of the Harelerbach and Bëtlerbach .

The combined stream first flows south through Surré, then runs for about two and a half kilometers through a narrow valley to the border with Belgium, where the Surbich flows into it on its right side . The Syrbach then marks the border between Luxembourg and Belgium for a good one kilometer between Boulaide and Tintange . About 700 m downstream the Haemicht reinforces it on the left side .

The Syrbach finally flows into the Sauer from the left at a height of about 333 m .

Tributaries

Tributaries of the Syrbach from the confluence to the mouth are:

  • Bëtlerbach ( right source stream )
  • Harelerbach ( left source stream )
  • Surbich also Surbach ( right )
  • Haemicht ( left ), 2.3 km
