The whole part of this river is located within West Java province. The river runs from south to north and drains to the Java Sea near the town of Indramayu. There are two river mouths: Cimanuk Lawas ("Old Cimanuk"; {{coord|6.24473|S|108.34502|E|display=inline,title}}) and Cimanuk Anyar ("New Cimanuk"; {{coord|6.228611|S|108.175|E|display=inline}}).[https://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=-6.24473&mlon=108.34502&zoom=12#map=12/-6.2844/108.2270 Cimanuk Lawas] - OpenStreetMap.org.
