The Arroyo Bellaco is a river in western Uruguay .
The river, which belongs to the catchment area of the Río Uruguay, is located in the northwest of the Río Negro department . It rises not far northeast of Bellaco and around one kilometer west of the source of the Arroyo de los Algarrobos near the Ruta 25 that runs there . From there it flows in a north-westerly direction and then passes the town of Tres Quintas about five kilometers northeast . North of this place, the Arroyo Bellaco is first fed on the left by the Arroyo San Pedro , then the Ruta 24 passes under the Paso Bellaco . Immediately afterwards, another tributary on the left joins. On its further way to the northwest, the Arroyy Bellaco is now fed by numerous smaller tributaries on the left and right. It also passes the mapped points Paso Manantial , Paso del Sauce and Paso de la Tranquera . It finally flows into the Arroyo Negro , a few kilometers before it ends in the Río Uruguay.
