The Cismon is a mountain stream (or torrent) in northern Italy, the main tributary of the Brenta River. The torrent flows from the Dolomites mountains in the Trentino Alto-Adige region through the plains of Venetian territory to the bigger Brenta River, which in turn flows into the Adriatic Sea in the Gulf of Venice.
The torrent drains a large basin of about 640 km2. Around 70% of it is in the Autonomous Province of Trento (about 440 km2) and 30% (about 200 km2) in the Province of Belluno in the Veneto region.
The total length of Cismon is 53,2 km, about half of which is in the Trentino and Veneto.[1]
