The Cute rises in Hohenleimbach, flows through the districts of Ahrweiler and Mayen- Koblenz, before it flows into the Rhine at Weissenthurm. Particularly in the upper reaches, ahead Mayen, it flows through a mountain landscape. At the mouth of Nitzbachs, an orographic right bank tributary of Virneburg and Nitz, lies the Bürresheim castle. In the central part of the Nice flows through the Pellenz and separates them from the south May Field.
