The Rantzau is a right tributary of the Stör in the district of Steinburg.
The Rantzau is about 15 km long and has its source northeast of Peissen. From there it flows in a southerly direction through Ridders, from there parallel to the federal highway 77 further south, crosses under the B 206 between Schlotfeld and Hohenlockstedt in a south-easterly direction and then flows through Winseldorf. It finally flows into the Stör via a sluice and, in the event of high water, via a pumping station at river kilometer 42.9.
Important tributaries of the Rantzau are the Silzen receiving water from the Schierenwald, the Steinteichgraben (Hohenlockstedt receiving water) and the Schlotfelder Graben (chimney field receiving water). Its catchment area covers around 6,950 hectares. Several of the streams that run into the Rantzau and drain through the Schlotfelder Graben are sandy watercourses.
From Ridders, the Rantzau and the adjacent valley are part of the Rantzau Valley FFH area.
