The Hernád river at Gibárt, Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén County, Hungary

It is a tributary to the river Slaná (Sajo). The source of the Hornád is the eastern slopes of Kráľova hoľa hill, south of Šuňava.[3]

The river is 286 km long, with 178 km located in Slovakia, and the remaining 108 km in Hungary.[4]

Cities along its course are Spišská Nová Ves and Košice, both in Slovakia. It flows into the river Sajó (Slovak Slaná) southeast of Miskolc.[3]

Along the river are a series of six separate limestone rocky cliffs and steep slopes, which collectively make up the Site of Community Importance 'Hornádske vápence'.[5]
