The river has its source at lake Ölen in Degerfors Municipality and flows south through the lakes Storbjörken and Lillbjörken and the mill town of Svartå. At lake Toften it joins with several streams from the south, flowing through Hasselfors to lake Teen, joining with Stavån.

East of Örebro the river passes through Skebäck and Oset, joining with Lillån before ending in Lake Hjälmaren.
  Svartån is the main tributary of Lake Hjälmaren and Eskilstunaån, which in turn is the largest tributary of Lake Mälaren and Norrström in Stockholm, the main outlet into the Baltic Sea.
