The aim of this paper was assessment of flood risk in the catchment of the Mała Wełna River on the reach from Gorzuchowskie lake to Kiszkowo weir No 1 (Brudzewko). The annual maximum discharges with given probability of exceedance 10%, 1% i 0,2% were calculated on the basis of data obtain from the Polish hydrological year-books: 1965-1975 and 1978-1983, and own data for the period 2000-2009. The maximum annual discharges were calculated on Institute accord-ing to the Meteorology and Water Management (IMGW) method, where the distri-bution of probability of exceedance of the annual maximum floods is calculated as the probability of alternative of two non-eliminated independent events. The max-imum annual discharges with given probability were inputted to RUBiKoN hy-draulic model, which allow to calculated localization of points of the highest water level on the cross-section of Mała Wełna river channel. Digital elevation model of the river valley were performed on the basis of topographic maps in the scale 1:10 000 with use of ArcGIS program with Spatial and 3D extension. Water levels in cross-sections and digital elevation model allow to establish the area where the flood risk probability is low (one on 500 years), medium (one on 100 years) and ...
