The Rožnovská Bečva (German Lower Betschwa , formerly Czech Dolní Bečva ) is the right source river of the Bečva in the Czech Republic . It drains over the Bečva, March and Danube into the Black Sea .

It rises at 950  m on the northern slope of the Vysoká ( 1024  m ) not far from the border with Slovakia between the Vsetínské vrchy and the Moravian-Silesian Beskids , where the White Ostrawitza , which drains over the Oder into the Baltic Sea, originates one kilometer to the east takes.

Horní Bečva , Prostřední Bečva , Dolní Bečva and Rožnov pod Radhoštěm , where their direction changes to the west, lie on their north-west course . The valley of the Rožnovská Bečva in its upper reaches forms the natural boundary between the Moravian-Silesian Beskids in the north and the Vsetínské vrchy in the south.

Other places on the river are Zubří , Střítež nad Bečvou , Zašová and Valašské Meziříčí .
