The Arroyo de la Línea is a river in the disputed Rincón de Artigas area claimed by both Uruguay and Brazil.

The river, which rises in the area where the Cuchilla de Haedo , the Cuchilla de Belén and the Cuchilla Negra meet in the border area of ​​the Uruguayan departments of Artigas , Salto and Rivera west of Masoller, flows north from there. It then forms the Arroyo Maneco together with the Arroyo Caraguatás from the merging of the two rivers .
