The Banska river, also known as Dobrichka reka is a river in Haskovo Province, southeastern Bulgaria. The river is 37 kilometres long.

The Banska springs out from the base of St.Elias Peak at 686 m altitude in the Eastern Rhodopes. It passes through the villages of Susam, Tatarevo, Garvanovo, Klokotnitsa, Kasnakovo and Dobrich. Between Tatarevo and Garvanovo it forms the Boaza Gorge. The river flows into the Maritsa near Dimitrovgrad as a right tributary. In 1230 the Battle of Klokotnitsa occurred near the banks of the river. The Banska River is inhabited by a large number of fish species, including the Mullet, Danube Bleak, the Carassius, Vimba and the Common Nase.
