Orljava seen in Požega.

Orljava is a river in Slavonia, eastern Croatia, a left tributary of Sava. It is 89 kilometres (55 mi) long and its basin covers an area of 1,494 square kilometres (577 sq mi).[1]

Orljava rises in the mountainous forested areas of Psunj, south of Bučje. It receives influx from smaller rivers that rise in the mountains of Papuk and Požeška Gora, as well as from the river Londža that rises in Krndija. It turns south to pass between Požeška gora and Dilj, and flows into the river Sava just west of Slavonski Kobaš, at 45°06′24″N 17°43′29″E / 45.106777°N 17.724656°E / 45.106777; 17.724656.
