The River Geirionydd ("Afon Geirionydd" in Welsh) is a river in Snowdonia, North Wales. It is a tributary of the River Crafnant ("Afon Conwy"), which flows into the River Conwy ("Afon Conwy"), which is the main river of the Conwy valley.

It flows from Llyn Geirionydd down a steep gorge before joining the river Crafnant. It is less than a mile in length.

The river passes the former Klondyke Mill, which used its waters. Klondyke was a mining and milling complex connected with some of the metal mines of the Gwydir Forest by means of a tramway which ran alongside Llyn Geirionydd. From above the Mill wagons used to enter the building via an aerial ropeway.
