The Große Gusen is one of the two source rivers of the Gusen , a left tributary of the Danube in the Mühlviertel ( Upper Austria ). It is 22.3 km long, together with the Gusen it comes to a length of 39.8 km.
It is formed by the union of the Rohrbach with smaller brooks (including Grasbach) south of Reichenau in the Mühlkreis and flows through Gallneukirchen and Engerwitzdorf , the Gallneukirchen basin, in a south to south-east direction . This is where the Große Gusen and the Kleine Gusen come together and from now on is only called Gusen. A few kilometers after St. Georgen an der Gusen , the river flows into the Danube below the Danube power station Abhaben-Asten .
The Große Gusen has water quality class II throughout (as of 2007).
