The Au has its origins in the Tarbeker and Muggesfelder Moor north of the town of Blunk and then flows in a northeasterly direction past the eponymous town of Tensfeld directly towards the Great Plöner Lake. The catchment area includes the Nehmser Lake, Muggesfelder Lake, Seedorfer Lake and Stocksee. They all drain directly or indirectly into the Tensfelder Au. In the mouth of the Tensfelder Au, over 100 hectares have been artificially drained by a pumping station since 1968 after the river course was relocated.

The motto of the municipality of Bosau "Live and work where others go on holiday!" already describes the main purpose of this website: We would like to draw attention to the fact that there are excellent opportunities for "sustainable" businesses to settle here in rural areas. Holstein Switzerland, with its high landscape and recreational value, is particularly predestined for location-independent companies such as those in the software and telecommunications industry. At the same time, we provide information about areas for residential development (single-family homes). A special website for holidays
