The River Braan ({{lang-gd|Breamhainn}}) is a tributary of the River Tay in Scotland.

Within the county of Perth and Kinross, it flows 11 miles (17 km) eastwards from Loch Freuchie, near Amulree, and joins the River Tay near Dunkeld.

Etymology

The name Braan is likely of Pritenic origin and derived from *breμ-, meaning "bellow, bray, roar" (Welsh brefu).[1] A similar etymological root underlies the names of the rivers Breamish in Northumberland, England and the Brefi in Ceredigion, Wales.[1]
