The Cosson is a 96.4-kilometre (59.9 mi) long river in central France, a right tributary of the river Beuvron.[1] Its source is near the village of Vannes-sur-Cosson in the Sologne. The Cosson flows through the following departments and communes:
Loiret: La Ferté-Saint-Aubin, La Ferté-Saint-Cyr
Loir-et-Cher: Vineuil, Candé-sur-Beuvron
The château de Chambord is built in one curve of the Cosson. The Cosson flows into the river Beuvron in Candé-sur-Beuvron, less than 1 kilometre (0.6 mi) from its confluence with the Loire.
