    The Olpkebach is a small stream in the south of Dortmund that flows through the Bittermark nature reserve. This area is a wooded urban forest that stretches along the northern slope of the Ardey Mountains. The stream rises in the Bittermark city forest and receives several tributaries there, including the Brandisbach and the Bittermarksbach, before flowing through the Olpkebach valley. At the end of the valley, the Olpkebach runs underground in a canal for a short section. It is part of the Emscher river system and eventually flows into the Schondelle, which in turn flows into the Emscher.
