It flows through Gorj County, passing towns such as Novaci, Bălcești, Bengești, Târgu Cărbunești, Jupânești, Turburea, and Capu Dealului, before joining the Jiu near Țânțăreni. The Gilort is 116 kilometers long and drains a basin of 1,358 square kilometers. It originates in the Parâng Mountains at Parângu Mare, around 2,340 meters above sea level, and its waters eventually reach the Black Sea via the Jiu and the Danube.
