History
The river arises from the eastern part of the district Lippe in the Teutoburg Forest / Egge Hills Nature Park. Its origin is in the municipality Barntrup, approximately one kilometre southwest of the northern district Alverdissen's centre, in an area used for agriculture.
It gave its name the municipality of Extertal (lit. Exter valley) that was founded newly in 1969.
