This article is about River Avon, Strathspey, Scotland. For other rivers with the same name, see River Avon (disambiguation).

The River Avon, Strathspey is a river in the Scottish Highlands, and a tributary of the River Spey. It drains the north-eastern area of the Cairngorm Mountains.

The source of the River Avon (IPA: [ɑːn]) is not on Ben Avon but some 10 miles further west on the slopes of Ben MacDui, (Gaelic: Beinn MacDhuibh). From Ben McDui, the headwaters flow down to Loch Avon. The river then continues east down Glen Avon for another 10 miles before turning north towards the village of Tomintoul and Strath Avon.
