The spring is located south of the village of Chlístova. The first stretch of the river runs in a south-easterly direction, shortly after Jaroměřice nad Rokytnou it meanders through a cut valley in an easterly direction. This section of the river forms part of the border between the Kraj Vysočina ( Highlands region ) and the Jihomoravský kraj ( South Moravian region ). Shortly before Moravský Krumlov ( Mährisch Kromau ) the course changes to the confluence with the Jihlava in a predominantly northeastern direction.
The Rokytná drains a catchment area of 584.3 km².
