The pebble creek arises in Rhineland-Palatinate Westerwald in two source branches southeast of Girkenroth at the foot of Girke Rother head near the border with Hesse. The left about 800 m long main branch rises in a small forest and at an altitude of 418 m above sea level. NN ( Koordinaten50.517557.987388 ). The two source branches unite in a mixed forest about 400 meters across the border on hessian floor. The pebble creek now leaves the forest and flows southeastward, on the northern edge of a protruding to the southeast lobe of the same forest, through a meadow landscape. His path is accompanied there by a hem with bushes and other woody shores. He reached the northern edge of spine castle - Dorndorf in the Blasius street and happens verdolt partly the village.
