Lužnice river springs in Austria on the western slope of Aichelberg mountain, 920 m a.s.l. It is in the Austrian part of the Novohradské Hory (Nové Hrady Mountains) and the river is called Lainsitz there. About 4 km far from the spring the Lužnice river forms the boundary line (about 3 km), then it runs back to Austria and soon returns to Bohemia.
Lužnice is a typical slow lowland river with many weirs and its stream runs quickly only during spring thaw or strong rains. The whole flow in the Czech Republic is suitable for water sports. It is a centre of canoeing and the best navigable part begins in Suchdol nad Lužnicí.
The river is 208 km long and it takes water from an area 4,226 square km large.
2321 Luznice Asteroid is a main-belt asteroid.
