The Adaja is a river of Spain located in the centre of the Iberian Peninsula, a major left-bank tributary of the Douro.[1] Featuring a total length of 163 km, its river basin drains an area of 5,328 km2.[2]
It has its source in the so-called Fuente Berroqueña (Villatoro, province of Ávila), near the saddle point between La Serrota and the Sierra de Ávila.[2] Initially following a Southwest-Northeast course through the Amblés Valley, the Adaja bends towards the North in Ávila. It receives the contribution of its most important tributary, the Eresma, near Matapozuelos,[3] emptying in the Douro in the province of Valladolid near the town of Aniago.[4]
