Geography
Current
The source of the river is located on the southern outskirts of Meinerzhagen at an altitude of about 437 meters above sea level, a kilometer west of the source of Volme . First, Agger flows south, absorbing several small watercourses on the right and left, then is blocked by the dam . Here Renge from the east and Genkel from the north join him. After the dam, the river turns west, rounding the mountain of Helenberg in an arc.
It flows into the Sieg on the right side between the cities of Troisdorf and Siegburg , located west and east of the Agger mouth, respectively, at an altitude of about 52 meters above sea level.
Agger flows through the Merkish , Oberbergish , Reinisch-Bergisch and Rhine-Sieg districts along its route.
