==River course==
The river rises in a remote valley within the [[Tamsweg District|Lungau region]] of the [[Austria]]n [[Salzburg (state)|state of Salzburg]]. The river flows eastwards through [[Tamsweg]] before crossing the border into the [[Styria|state of Styria]].
 
Between Tamsweg and [[Unzmarkt-Frauenburg]] the river flows through a rural mountain valley and is closely paralleled by the {{convert|65|km|abbr=on}} long narrow gauge [[Murtalbahn]] railway. From Unzmarkt the river continues in an easterly direction through the industrial towns of [[Leoben]] and [[Bruck an der Mur]]. At Bruck an der Mur the [[Mürz]] joins the Mur, which turns sharply south to flow through the city of [[Graz]].
