It rises on Blacklorg Hill, north-east of Cairnsmore of Carsphairn in the Carsphairn hills, and flows south-westward into the Glenkens valley, passing through Carsfad and Earlstoun lochs, both of which are dammed to supply the Galloway Hydro Electric Scheme. From there, the river flows south, passing St. John's Town of Dalry and New Galloway, before widening to form the 11-mile long Loch Ken. The River Dee also enters halfway down the loch, and from Glenlochar, at the south end of the loch, the river continues as the Dee towards Kirkcudbright and the coast. {{coord|55|04|N|4|09|W|display=title|region:GB_type:river_source:GNS-enwiki}}{{Commonscat|Water of Ken}}{{DumfriesGalloway-geo-stub}}{{Scotland-river-stub}} 1 : Rivers of Dumfries and Galloway |
