Gumara River
The Gumara is a river of northern-western Ethiopia. It empties into Lake Tana at 11°53′N 37°31′E from the east. Hot springs on the Gumara's banks at Wanzaye, which were popular in medicinal hot baths from the late 18th century till now, were already mentioned by missionary Henry Stern.
The river is an important spawning ground for native fish species, which include barbus, tilapia and catfish.
