The Kano River (狩野川, Kanogawa) is a river in Shizuoka Prefecture of Japan. It is 46 km long and has a watershed of 853 km².

The river rises from Mount Amagi in Izu Peninsula and falls into Suruga Bay at Numazu. It has been remembered for the powerful typhoon called Kanogawa Taifū (狩野川台風), which caused heavy damage to towns along the river in September 1958.
