| Origin | Carmenabolgue, County Wicklow |
| Mouth | Irish Sea at Arklow as the Avoca |
The Avonbeg River (Irish: abhann beag, small river) rises on the northern flank of Carmenbologue Mountain in the Wicklow Mountains and flows southeast into the valley of Glenmalure. It continues southeast through the villages of Greenan and Ballinaclash before joining the Avonmore at the Meeting of the Waters to form the River Avoca, which in turn discharges into the Irish Sea at Arklow. From source to sea the river remains in East Wicklow.
