Crinisus is a river in Sicily, named after Crinisus. It is formed by two rivers that meet at about 8 kilometres (5 mi) from Castellammare del Golfo in the province of Trapani. The western river starts from Monte Busecchio near Calatafimi and the Easter river from the Gola di Sorice near Alcamo. The two rivers are also traditionally called the hot river (western) and the cold river (eastern) and in Italian language the Crinisus is called Fiume Freddo that means cold river.
