The Devnya is a 27 km long river in northeastern Bulgaria, a left tributary of the Provadiya, which flows into Lake Beloslav draining into the Black Sea. The river takes its source from several karst springs, situated north and northeast of the town of Suvorovo. Its main stem is the Mezenska Cheshma spring at an altitude of 314 m some 2 km north of the town. It flows south in a wide valley. The Devnya originally flowed into Lake Beloslav but following the construction of the Varna-Devnya Industrial Complex its lower course was diverted to the river Provadiya.
Its drainage basin covers a territory of 201 km2.
