The Kuru or Chel River forms in the south of Western Bahr el Ghazal on the border with the Central African Republic. It flows north, passing the road that runs west to Deim Zubeir from Ibra on its east bank, and enters Northern Bahr el Ghazal. It is joined from the left by the Biri River at 7.963864°N 26.422321°E on the state boundary.[3]
The river passes Arroyo and joins a major tributary from the left around 8.8138°N 26.9241°E, just east of the Ashana Game Reserve.[3] The river continues north to join the Magadhik River between Marial Bai to the west and Nyamlell to the west. The combined streams form the Loll or Lol River.[1]
