caption_attribution_description: English: The river Metauto San Angelo in Vado Italy Français&#160;: Le fleuve Metauro à San Angelo in Vado, Marches, Italie
context_page_description: The Metauro is a river in the Marche region of central Italy. It rises in the Apennine Mountains and runs east for 110 kilometres or 121 kilometres if the Meta is included as its uppermost reach.
  The name of the river in Latin is Metaurus or Mataurus. In Ancient Greek, the name of the river is Métauros, Μέταυρος which stems simply from the union of the two torrents: Meta, running from the Apennine pass Bocca Trabaria, at an elevation of 1,044 metres, and Auro, flowing from Monte Maggiore, at an elevation of 1,384 metres.
  The source of the river is located near Monte dei Frati in the border region between the provinces of Pesaro e Urbino, Arezzo and Perugia. It flows east through Pesaro e Urbino near Mercatello sul Metauro, Sant'Angelo in Vado, Urbania, Fermignano, Fossombrone, and, after flowing into a tight valley, the Gola del Furlo, Montemaggiore al Metauro, from which it starts to flow in a plain area. The river flows northeast near Calcinelli, Saltara, Lucrezia, Cartoceto and Cuccurano before flowing into the Adriatic Sea near Fano.
