Amburayan River is a river in the island of Luzon in the Philippines. It originates from the Cordillera mountains and traverses the provinces of Benguet, La Union, and Ilocos Sur, where it empties into the South China Sea.

The river’s headwaters are a confluence of smaller creeks along the south of barangay Lubo, in Kibungan. Several other tributary creeks merge with the river as it flows along Atok and Kapangan. It then flows along the Sugpon-San Gabriel border, the Sugpon-Santol border, the Sugpon-Sudipen border, the Sudipen-Alilem border, the Sudipen-Tagudin border, and finally at the Tagudin-Bangar border, where its river mouth is located.  Read More: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amburayan_River

Amburayan River which serves as natural boundary of Ilocos Sur and La Union holds a great significance to the indigenous people of Ilocos and Benguet. The river’s head is found in the lower parts of Kibungan, Benguet and runs across the valleys of Sugpon, Ilocos Sur reaching the South China Sea marking its boundary to its neighbor province La Union. It provides living for the people and plays an important role to the land’s agriculture but can be very destructive after a heavy rainfall. The river can almost run dry in summer but it cradles a sight to behold in the rainy season.  Read More:  https://www.ilocoshotels.com/amburayan-river.html
