The Grom-Bach flows into the Ohebach in Frielendorf. Its source is located southeast of Linsingen at an altitude of 278 m (912 ft) above sea level. From Linsingen, the Grom-Bach flows in a northeastern direction, turns after about 600 metres (660 yards) to the north-west. Shortly before the village of Todenhausen, the Grom-Bach turns into an easterly direction, then into a southerly direction to flow to Spieskappel. Before the Grom-Bach reaches Spieskappel, it turns again to the north-east and immediately after passing under the federal highway B 254, it merges with the approaching Hohlenbach coming from the south. Up to the mouth in the Ohebach (near Weidemühle) at the northern end of the village Frielendorf, the Grom-Bach covered a length of 4.65 km (2.89 mi) and a height difference of approximately 36 metres (118 feet).
