The outflow is to the southwest through the municipality of Arriana ; at Amaranda (municipality of Maronia-Sapes ) the river takes on the Patermos coming from the right. At Imeros it flows into the Ormos Anoikto bay of the Aegean Sea after a run of around 58 km . It crosses the Thessaloniki-Alexandroupolis railway and the Aftokinitodromos 2 motorway ( Εγνατία Οδός ).
