The River Cassley (Gaelic: Abhainn Charsla) is a highland river in Sutherland. It ultimately joins the River Oykel to form the Kyle of Sutherland at Invercassley. The Kyle is lower down joined by the River Shin and River Carron before it becomes the Dornoch Firth and enters the North Sea. The main road bridge over the river is at Rosehall, halfway between the mouth and the impressive Achness Waterfall or Cassley Falls.
Like its larger neighbour the Oykel, the Cassley is noted for its salmon and trout fishing. The lower river is in the same ownership as the Achaness Hotel at Rosehall, which provides accommodation and ghillies for visiting fishermen.
