The river Myjava ( German rarely Miawa ; Hungarian Miava ) rises in the White Carpathians at the foot of the Čupec ( 818.9  m ) until it flows into the March after about 80 kilometers .

The course of the river originates in the Czech Republic and after 600 meters crosses the border with Slovakia . It first turns south away from the White Carpathians. It flows through the municipality of Stará Myjava and on through the city of the same name Myjava . From this point on, the river also represents the geographical border between the White and Little Carpathians . Other larger towns on the Myjava are Jablonica , Senica and Šaštín-Stráže . The Myjava flows into the March near Kúty .
