The Elbe rises in the Waldeck-Frankenberg district in the urban area of Waldeck. Its source is in the Old Forest, part of the Waldeck Forest, about 3 km southeast of the district of Freienhagen between the Heitzelberg (467.4 m above sea level) in the west-northwest and the Rabenkopf (446.1 m) in the east-southeast at an altitude of around 413 m .

The source of the Elbe is a little off the beaten track on the bike path towards Edersee / Kassel.
