The Billequelle is a popular destination. The starting point is the village street, from which you follow the signs to the castle ruins. A bridge leads over the remains of the old moat of Linau Castle, there you go/drive past the stones of the ruins over another small bridge and you come to a small embankment. Behind it is a paved service road. Here you keep to the right and walk towards a small forest in which the Billequelle is on the right-hand side.

Like so many other sources, the Billequelle is unfortunately completely unspectacular. Luckily there is a sign - otherwise you wouldn't notice them.
You don't see any water bubbling here and it's hard to imagine that a lot of water should flow from here to feed the Bille. But it is so and therefore it is also a highlight because all springs are wonders of nature.

The name Bille comes from the Slavic word biely, meaning "white". The spring feeds from the Koberger and the Linauer Moor. In its upper reaches, the Bille takes in many streams and small bodies of water, such as the Corbek or the Schwarze Au. After flowing through numerous places in Stormarn and in the Duchy of Lauenburg district, the Bille flows into the Elbe at the Brandshof lock. The river is 65 kilometers long, 42 kilometers of which run through Schleswig-Holstein and 23 kilometers through Hamburg.

Up to Bergedorf, the upper Bille forms the border between the districts of Stormarn and Lauenburg in many places, which in turn corresponds to the historical border between the settlement areas of the Saxons and the Wends (Limes Saxoniae).
