The Kamenice (German Kamnitz ) is the right source river of the Nežárka in the Czech Republic.

It rises in the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands at an altitude of 648 m at the eastern foot of the Bohutín (710 m) above Těmice .

The towns of Těmice and Babín lie on its course in a southerly direction . At the Rudolfova pila the Kamenice is dammed in the Pecovský rybník, from the adjoining Dvouhrázný rybník the Drahoňovský potok flows into it. The river then crosses the town of Kamenice nad Lipou and via Žďár , Nová Včelnice and Nekrasín the Kamenice flows to Jarošov nad Nežárkou , where after about 28 km it joins the Žirovnice to form the Nežárka.

The narrow-gauge railway Jindřichův Hradec - Obrataň runs along the right side of the river between Kamenice nad Lipou and Jarošov nad Nežárkou .
