The Treba's source is near Neustadt.[2] Southeast of Treuen, the Treba unites with the Lämmelsbach and is then called Treuener Wasser.[1] The Treuener Wasser empties from the right into the Trieb between the town of Treuen and the Thoßfell Predam.[3]
There is a gauging station for a stream gauge (OBF51650) and this lies within Special Area of Conservation 5439-301 "Oberes Göltzschtal", which is a protected area and part of the Ore Mountains/Vogtland Nature Park.[4]
