It is a left tributary of the Elbe, which it joins in Krippen, near Bad Schandau. It has an elevation of 136 meters. Its name comes from Krippen, a small fishing hamlet on the river. It was used to power mills in hamlets and villages for centuries. A ''moller'' (miller) was first mentioned in a document in Krippen in 1474.
