course

It winds first through the Weender Altdorf, where it is partially divided into two arms, before it flows through the former monastery grounds and finally leaves the village of Weende northwards. After it has crossed under Bundesstraße 3 , it divides again: one arm flows westwards directly into the Leine, while another flows a few kilometers, strictly straightened and mostly without wood on the banks, northwards through the agricultural landscape in the Leinegraben . The turnaround passes Bovenden and finally flows into the Leine near Nörten-Hardenberg-Angerstein .
