The river rises from the Adamello in Trentino and runs through the Val di Fumo and the Val di Daone, forming the reservoirs of Lago di Malga Bissina and Lago di Malga Boazzo. At Pieve di Bono it enters the lower valleys of Giudicarie, receiving the waters of the '' torrente'' Adanà . Further south it flows through the Lago d'Idro near Baitoni before running down into Lombardy and the Province of Brescia.
