Summary/Abstract: The article is devoted to estimating the risk of floods in selected rivers of Lower Silesia. On the basic of empirical data concerning daily water levels of three hydrological stations on the rivers: Odra, Nysa Kłodzka and Nysa Łużycka the empirical distribution function of quaterly high water levels will be illustrated. To empirical distribution, the theoretical distribution will be matched and on its base the risk of floods danger will be calculated.
