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.
