Checheho River

The Checheho River is a small river located in north-central Ethiopia. Part of the watershed of the Abay River, it rises to the east of Debre Zebit to flow south to join the Bashilo River. Its major tributary is the Zhit'a, which enters the Checheho on the left side. This region’s rivers, including the Checheho, contribute to the larger Blue Nile basin and are essential to local agriculture and water systems, particularly in the Amhara region, which relies on these tributaries for various water needs    .
