The Lenne (German pronunciation: [ˈlɛnə] Audio file "De-Lenne.ogg" not found) is a tributary of the river Ruhr in the Sauerland hills, western Germany. It has caused flooding in recent years.[2]
Originating on top of the Kahler Asten near Winterberg in an intermittent spring at an elevation of 2,687 ft (819 m), the Lenne ends after a course of 129 km flowing into the Ruhr river near the city of Hagen. With an average discharge of 25 m³/s near its mouth, it is one of the two main tributaries of the Ruhr,[citation needed] the other being the Möhne, which joins the Ruhr from the right.[3]
