Course

Which Quellarm understood as the actual source of the stream, is not entirely clear.

According to the Academy of Sciences of the GDR and the Historical Commission of the Saxon Academy of Sciences of the origin in the field of Brumbachswiesen is to be sought. The Brumbach arises then in the field of horse heads, near the deserted village Brumbach - which was named after the creek. Here arises a Quellarm in 340 meters height in a swampy area. Consideration would also in the swamp area opens out on the right side, about 1.1 km long, springing to the woman waiting, Quellarm.

The next significant source arms flow into the Kuhschwanzwiese (left 2 km - sometimes called here Brumbach, right 1,5 km, left) in the Brumbach. After recording a few small tributaries in whores wood, at the foot of the Mohrungsberg, east-northeast from the summit of Mitre creek in the Brumbach. Later in the right side opens an unnamed tributary, about 850 m in a straight line east-northeast from the summit of Raven Koppe, at 272.7 m in the Brumbach. This divides into two arms. In the right-side flow after about 20 meters, a branch of the Mitre creek in the Brumbach, the somewhat north-west flows on now to the foot of the mountain monk again rather north to squirm - after the two arms have reunited. The length of the division is about 700 meters flow 0.7 kilometers. The creek bends to the southwest, winds up in several bends again to the northwest to a nearly rectangular bend to the northeast after about a further 50 meters, just north of Wippraer Station Road ( junction L 230 ), in the field of Friesendorf in the Wipper lead.
