Course
The Kieselbach source is close to the rail station Ernstthal am Rennsteig. On its way northeast through the Nature Park Thuringian Forest, the Kieselbach flows first through the Finsterer Grund (Dark Valley), where a now closed section of the Sonneberg – Probstzella single-track railway line passes over it on a viaduct. Finally it reaches the housing estate Waschdorf (western municipality part of Lichte). In Waschdorf it unites with the Little Lichte and follows as Lichte River further the Lichte Valley to the Leibis-Lichte Dam and to the mouth into the Schwarza (Saale).
