The headwaters of the Forstinninger Sempt is an amazingly idyllic area with several fish ponds, narrow paths and several break benches, northwest of Forstinning just north of the A94. The Semptquelle is point 10 of the historic Forstinninger Radlrundweg. A treasure from the Middle Bronze Age (1200 BC) was discovered in the source area, comprising around 50 clasp bars. These served as a means of payment and the bronzesmith as raw material for the manufacture of weapons, jewelry and tools. Three of the bars are on display in a display case in the auditorium of the Forstinningen elementary school.

Small trail around the pond. Nice and quiet location.

The Sempt arises near Ottenhofen from the confluence of the Anzinger Sempt and the shorter Forstinninger Sempt. It is heavily fed by groundwater from the gravel plain, so that it is relatively cool in summer, rarely exceeding 17 °C, but it does not freeze in winter.[4]

The most important tributary is the Strogen, which flows into Moosburg. At Wörth the Schwillach flows into the Sempt. At Berglern, the Sempt passes under the Mittlere-Isar Canal and flows into it between the compensation pond and the Echinger reservoir.
