The Gave d'Aspe is the torrential river flowing through the Aspe Valley, one of the three main valleys of the High-Béarn (Pyrénées-Atlantiques), in the Southwest of France.

It is formed in the Aspe Circus, below the Mount Aspe (2 643 m; Spain).

After joining the Gave d'Ossau, in Oloron-Sainte-Marie, it forms the Gave d'Oloron.
