The **Loing** (French pronunciation: [\[lwɛ̃\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA/French) [ⓘ](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:LL-Q150_(fra)-J%C3%A9r%C3%A9my-G%C3%BCnther-Heinz_J%C3%A4hnick-Loing.wav)) is a 143 km (89 mi) long river in central France, a left tributary of the [Seine](/source/Seine).[1]

Its source is in [Sainte-Colombe-sur-Loing](/source/Sainte-Colombe-sur-Loing), in the southwest of the [department](/source/Departments_of_France) of [Yonne](/source/Yonne), and it flows into the Seine in [Saint-Mammès](/source/Saint-Mamm%C3%A8s), near [Moret-sur-Loing](/source/Moret-sur-Loing). Its main tributaries are the [Ouanne](/source/Ouanne_(river)), the [Aveyron](/source/Aveyron_(Loing)), the [Puiseaux](/source/Puiseaux_(river)), the [Solin](/source/Solin_(river)), the [Lunain](/source/Lunain) and the [Orvanne](/source/Orvanne_(river)). The part of the [Briare Canal](/source/Briare_Canal) between [Rogny-les-Sept-Écluses](/source/Rogny-les-Sept-%C3%89cluses) and Montargis runs parallel to the Loing.
