The Guadiela is a river in the Iberian Peninsula, a left-bank tributary of the Tagus and the latter's major upper-course tributary.^[1]^[2]

The Guadiela has its source in the Serranía de Cuenca [es], near Cueva del Hierro,^[3] at the Fuente Pinilla site.^[4] It flows from East to West for 117 kilometres (73 mi),^[2] passing through the Spanish province of Cuenca, emptying into the Tagus at the Bolarque reservoir,^[5] on the border between the provinces of Cuenca and Guadalajara. It is dammed upstream by the Buendía reservoir [es].^[1]

It receives the waters from the Cuervo [es], Guadamejud [es], Mayor [es] and Trabaque [es].^[2]

The hydronym Guadiela is formed by 'Guad' (of Arabic origin, conveying the meaning of "river") and the '-iela' suffix (adiminutive).^[6]
