The Canalul Timiş (Timiş Canal) is a canal linking the Timiş and the Ghimbăşel in Romania. It starts in the proximity of Dârste and roughly follows the southern limit of the city of Braşov. The canal intercepts the rivers flowing towards the city from the Postăvaru Mountains and diverts them into the Ghimbăşel, on many reaches using the river beds of previous rivers. In the city the canal is covered.
