The Mesa River (Spanish: Río Mesa) is a river in the Sierra de Solorio range area, Iberian System, Spain. It is a tributary of the Piedra River.
There are trout in the river, but the population of the endangered European freshwater crayfish in the river has practically disappeared owing to the introduction of the North American signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus).
