It flows generally southeastwardly through northeastern Otter Tail and central Wadena Counties, through the city of Sebeka, and enters the Leaf River in Bullard Township in southeastern Wadena County, [cite book| title= Minnesota Atlas & Gazetteer |year=1994 |publisher= DeLorme |location=Yarmouth, Me. |isbn= 0-89933-222-6 |pages= pp. 53, 60-61] eight miles (13 km) upstream of the Leaf River's mouth at the Crow Wing River. The river's course is within the North Central Hardwood Forest ecoregion, which is characterized by hardwood forests of maple and basswood mixed with conifers, on outwash plains and moraines amid flat glacial lakes.
