Geography

Course

The stream originates as a tail stream on Rinsberg the northwest foot of Kalteiche near the federal road 54 and the North Rhine- Westphalian- Hessian border to nearly 468 m from the Schneiser -Born. From there it flows between Rinsberg and Hemmerberg to the northwest and Wilnsdorf. In the village he turns north and flows around the Elkersberg in a westerly direction. In parallel to the L907 flows the stream to a foothill, and about 900 m southwest to Rinsdorf where the road enters the side of the stream, and this continues to flow to the northwest.

From Eisern the rear stream is then called Eisern Bach. In the village opens its largest with nearly 2.3 km long tributary, the Oberndorf, in the creek. The L907 goes here several times the side of the stream. Next the Eisern creek flows only in a northwesterly and then in a south-westerly direction Eiserfeld. In the village it flows partly through tunnels and under numerous bridges next to the Eiserntalstraße towards Eiserfeld Center and ends there at an altitude of 220 m in the victory.
