The Kokcha begins in Kuran wa Munjan District near the district center of Kuran wa Munjan and flows north, passing through Yamgan District and Jurm District. Near the village of Baharak, the Warduj river meets the Kokcha. The river then flows east, going around the northern border of Argo District and passing Feyzabad. Finally, the 320-km long Kokcha enters Takhar Province, flows around the southern border of Rustaq District, and discharges into the Amu Darya near Ai-Khanoum.[1][2][7]
