The Lenne is a right-hand, eastern tributary of the river Weser in the district of Holzminden in the Weser Uplands, Lower Saxony (Germany). It is a secondary river.
The River Lenne rises on the northern edge of the Holzberg ridge. Its source is located at 306 m above sea level (NN) on the terrain of the parish of Wangelnstedt, above the village of Linnenkamp in Wolpersgrund field.
The Lenne flows in a predominantly northwesterly direction through the villages of Linnenkamp and Wangelnstedt, where it passes the uplands of Elfas (max. 409.6 m above NN) to the west. After the village of Lenne the River Lenne runs northeast past the hills of the Homburg Forest (max. 406.1 m above NN) and through the town of Eschershausen (with its suburb of Scharfoldendorf), from where it passes between the two ridges of the Ith (max. 439 m above NN; some distance off) to the north and Vogler (max. 460.4 m above NN) to the south. As it does, the Lenne flows through Oelkassen and Kirchbrak and passes the village of Linse (in the borough of Bodenwerder), where it is joined by its largest tributary, the Spüligbach.
The Lenne finally discharges into the Weser on the northern edge of the Vogler between the Eckberg (203.6 m above NN; with its Bismarck Tower) to the north and the Königszinne (255 m above NN; with its observation tower) to the south, immediately east of the town of Bodenwerder.
