The source of the Pchyovzha is located in the western part of Lyubytinsky District, southwest of the settlement of Nebolchi. The river flows north. Downstream from the village of Petrovskoye, it accepts the Raplya from the right, turns west and enters Leningrad Oblast. Upstream from Budogoshch it is dammed and forms a reservoir. Downstream from Budogoshch the Pchyovzha reenters Novgorod Oblast. The mouth of the Pchyovzha is close to the village of Melekhovskaya, almost at the border between Novgorod and Leningrad Oblasts.
