Geography
editThe Jeziorka and the Nowy Rów stream flow through the Odra River Valley and share an analogous catchment area. The Nowy Rów is a tributary of the Jerziorka.[1]
Initially, the river flows east, turns north in Gościeńczyce, and turns east again near Jazgarzew. In its upper course, on a section of several kilometers from the village of Wygnanka to the village of Wilczoruda , the river flows through fish ponds dug in its bed.[2] It crosses the ponds in Żabieniec, where it has been supplied with water from the Czarna Canal since 1973.[3] The Mała stream flows into the Jeziorka at Konstancin-Jeziorna.[4] In the last section, it crosses the Wilanówka stream, which flows under Jeziorka through a culvert and does not flow into it. The Jeziorka enters the Vistula near Obórki village, about 6 kilometres (4 mi) north-east of Konstancin-Jeziorna.[5]
