The Dunajka arises in the Polická vrchovina ( Politzer Upland ) at the southern foot of the Borek (508 m nm) in the center of the village Bukovice through the confluence of the Pěkovský potok and Hlavňovský potok. In its upper reaches the brook flows in a south-westerly direction and reaches the village of Žďár nad Metují south of the Ostaš (508 m nm) .

The lower reaches of the Dunajka leads through a valley with several loops to the south; the stream is bridged four times by the Choceň – Meziměstí railway line. Across from Petrovice , the Dunajka flows into the Metuje at the desert Vlčinec Castle in the Maršovské údolí ( Marsov Valley ) .

The Dunajka has a length of five km.
