The Arroyo Catalán Grande is a river in northern Uruguay .
It rises in the area of the Department of Artigas in the Cuchilla de Belén , near the sources of the Arroyo Sepulturas and the Arroyo Catalán Seco east of the Cerro Vichaderos . From there it flows in a northerly direction, where the right-hand tributary Arroyo Catalán Seco and the left-hand tributaries Arroyo Catalán Chico , Arroyo Juan Fernández and Arroyo Sauce de Macedo join on its way. Shortly before it flows into the Río Cuareim as a tributary on the left, the Arroyo del Catalancito meets the Arroyo Catalán Grande on the left .
Agate and amethyst deposits can be found on Arroyo Catalán Grande .

- ↑ In the last section of the route, the Arroyo del Catalancito is also referred to as Arroyo Catalán Grande in the map material of the Uruguayan Statistics Institute. Whether this is a misnomer could not be clarified by the author and requires further research.
