The Ireng River (or Maú River) forms part of Guyana's western border with Brazil. It flows through the valleys of the Pakaraima Mountains for most of its length. It is the only major river in Guyana which flows from North to South. It is one of the northernmost tributaries of the Amazon river system.

It is considered to be the most picturesque of Guyana's many rivers. Orinduik Falls and Takagka Falls are located on the Ireng River.
