The Gudar is a river of central Ethiopia. [1] It is a left-bank tributary of the Abay or Blue Nile; tributaries of the Gudar include the Dabissa and the Taranta. The Gudar River has a drainage area about 7,011 square kilometers in size. [2] It was bounded by the historical Endagabatan province. [3]
In the 1600s, emperor Susenyos I and his troops traversed this river to meet Hadiya leader Sidi Mohammed at the Battle of Hadiya. [4]
A Greek resident built the first bridge over the Gudar in 1897. [5]
