Jaú River (Portuguese: Rio Jaú) is a river of Amazonas state in north-western Brazil.

[2] The 2,367,333 hectares (5,849,810 acres) Jaú National Park was created in 1980 to protect an area of Amazon rainforest.

All three rivers flow east to enter the right bank of the Rio Negro..[2] The Carabinani, which flows north to enter the Jaú River a few kilometres before that river enters the Rio Negro, forms the boundary between the Jaú National Park and the Rio Negro State Park North Section.

The last section of the Jaú between the Carabinani and its mouth on the Rio Negro continues the boundary between the two parks.
