Auron (river)

The Auron is a 76.9 km (47.8 mi) long river in central France, a left tributary of the river Yèvre. Its source is near the village of Valigny, west of Lurcy-Lévis. The Auron flows generally northwest through the following towns, all in the department of Cher: Bannegon, Dun-sur-Auron, Saint-Just, Plaimpied-Givaudins and Bourges. The Auron flows into the Yèvre at Bourges. For much of its length, it runs parallel to the disused Canal de Berry.
