The Krzna pronounced [ˈkʂna] is a river in eastern Poland, and a left tributary of the Bug. The river is 107 kilometres (66 mi) long and its watershed area is 3,273 square kilometres (1,263.7 sq mi).[1] The Krzna flows through Poland's Lublin Voivodeship.[2] It arises from the connection of two water jets flowing in the Łuków Forest: Northern Krzna and Southern Krzna which is considered to be the beginning of the Krzna. The river empties into the Bug near the town of Terespol and the village of Neple, close to the Belarus border near, the city of Brest. A canal connects it to the Wieprz.
