The Rokytka stream rises south-east of Říčany in the Říčany forest, between the villages of Tehov and Tehovec, at an altitude of 453 m. It joins the Vltava in the Praha – Libeň city district at an altitude of 185 m. It flows through the Central Bohemian Region, entering Prague near the village of Nedvězí u Říčan and continuing through the cadastral areas of Královice, Hájek u Uhříněvsi, Koloděje, Běchovice, Dolní Počernice, Hostavice, Kyje, Hloubětín, Hrdlořezy, Vysočany and Libeň. The catchment area down to the Kyjský rybník reservoir profile covers 115.3 km2. The most important water structure on the Rokytka is the Čihadla reservoir, a dry polder. The crest of its spillway is at an elevation of 219.27 m above sea level. The volume of water retained up to the spillway crest is 345,214 m3.

The catchment above the Kyje reservoir is fitted with 5 water-level gauging stations: Říčany C1, Říčany C2, Nedvězí, Kolovraty 1 and Kolovraty 2. A further gauging station lies below Kyjský rybník, directly downstream of the reservoir. The last station on the Rokytka is in Vysočany — the Praha-Vysočany station.
