It rises as an outflow from Lake Ampola and flows into the Chiese near Storo .

The exit of the last basin is 50 m above the valley floor near Storo. The difference in altitude has been used by several hydropower plants since 1905. Its main tributaries include Casina, Bragone, Lorina, Fontana Bianca and Retorto.
