The main tributaries are the Tumba and the Shola (both right).

The source of the Kovzha is in the western bay of Lake Kovzhskoye. The river follows about its natural course and then joins the Volga–Baltic Waterway and turns south. In the lower course, the Kovzha forms the border between Belozersky and Vashkinsky Districts. The lowest course of the river is a water reservoir. Here the Kovzha accepts the Shola, its main tributary, from the right.
