The Litavka is a river in the Czech Republic, a right tributary of the Berounka River. It flows through the Central Bohemian Region. It is 54.9 km (34.1 mi) long.
Etymology
The river was originally called Pstruhový potok (meaning "Trout Stream") and Bohutínský potok ("Bohutín Stream"). The name Litavka is used from the 18th century. It is derived from the Czech word root lit, from which the verbs lít ("to pour") and rozlévat ("to spill") are derived. It refers to the regular flooding of the stream and its spilling from the banks.[1]
Characteristic
The Litavka originates in the territory of Vranovice in the Brdy Highlands at an elevation of Template:Cvt, on the slope of the Malý Tok mountain, and flows to Beroun, where it enters the Berounka River at an elevation of Template:Cvt. It is 54.9 km (34.1 mi) long. Its drainage basin has an area of 628.8 km2 (242.8 sq mi).[2]
The longest tributaries of the Litavka are:[3]
