The Ichte springs east of the Oder Dam as Steinaer Bach in Lower Saxony.[1] After the confluence of the Hellegrundbach, the river is called Ichte.[2] The Ichte then crosses the boundary between Lower Saxony and Thuringia.[2] It finally discharges northeast of Pützlingen , a district of Werther, from the left into the Helme.[3]
