Rokach (Ukrainian: Рокач, IPA: [roˈkɑtʃ]) is a river in Ukraine, a left tributary of the Irpin River. It is located in Bucha Raion of Kyiv Oblast. The river is 17 kilometres long, and has a drainage basin of 160 square kilometres.[1] Rokach River begins in the forest to the north of Mykulychi. It flows through a dam near Myrotske, and due to this a pond is formed. The river continues flowing on the border of Bucha and Hostomel, and then through Hostomel.
