The Zorge flows through the town of the same name along the street.

Like many other Harz rivers, the Zorge is formed by the confluence of two important source rivers. In the case of the Zorge, these two rivers are the Sprakelbach, which rises south of Braunlage, and the Wolfsbach, whose source area is located northwest of Hohegeiß.

In the town of Zorge, these two streams join north of the Bartholomäus Church at a height of around 345 meters above sea level. As it passes through the town of the same name, the Zorge absorbs numerous other streams, including the Steigerwasser, the Eisbach, the Dorenbach and the Illigesbach.

The wild mountain river, which is not slowed down by any dams, leaves the Harz beyond Zorge. It now turns southeast and flows towards the town of Ellrich. Here the river enters the South Harz karst landscape. In the town area, the Zorge is also supplemented by the water of the Rosenbach.

The important tributary Wieda flows into the Zorge near Woffleben. Other major tributaries are the Sülze, which flows into the Zorge near Cleysingen, northwest of Woffleben, and the Behre, which flows from Ilfeld and flows into the Zorge in Niedersachswerfen. This in turn turns south here and crosses the district town of Nordhausen.

Beyond this town, the Leimbach flows into the Zorge and a few hundred meters before it flows into the Helme, the river takes in the water from the Krummbach. This point is around 35 kilometers from the junction of the Sprakelbach and Wolfsbach at a height of around 160 meters above sea level.

On the way from the Upper Harz to the Goldene Aue, the landscape around the river changes considerably. In many places the Zorge is accompanied by paths and roads, but unfortunately there is no continuous hiking trail along the river bank.

From the bridge you have a great view of the rushing Zorge.
