The Leutra arises in a constant flow about 400 meters east-northeast of the outskirts of Großschwabhausen in the district of Weimarer Land at about 294 m in a fork in the road just before some clarifying ponds on the left of the course. Already above, in the valley basin, which is strongly sunken here, a ditch with inconsistent water flow runs from the place, the lower part of which together with a longer opening slope ditch reaches a length of 2.0 km. Its highest source is at 367 m on the edge of the Großschwabhäuser Hain nature reserve.

Small swimming area. If you like to cool off spontaneously: here! At this point the water is deep enough to cool down. Next time, we may bring a rope to make getting in and out a little easier.

A tour to the orchids of the Leutra Valley is always worthwhile when it is in bloom.
