Jawornik with its tributaries

The Jawornik is a left tributary of the Vistula in the Silesian Beskids of 4.8 kilometers in length. The river has its source on the eastern slopes of Soszów Wielki and flows west. It flows through the Jawornik district of Wisła , before flowing into the Vistula not far from the Czajka .

Its name comes from the sycamore maple (Polish: clone jawor ) that overgrows its valley.

Two hiking trails lead along the stream from Wisła, one to the Soszów Wielki mountain hut and the other to the Przełęcz Beskidek mountain pass .
