Dorback Burn, looking north from Lochindorb
Bends in the Dorback Burn, near Dava

The Dorback Burn is a right-bank tributary of the River Findhorn in Morayshire.

The river emerges from the northeast end of Lochindorb (57°24’55"N, 3°42’14"W) and flows north-east to a point where the A939 road and A940 road meet in its valley, and here it is joined on its right by the Anaboard Burn.

The Dorback then flows north, accompanied by the A940 for several miles until it is joined by the River Divie, which also enters from the east. Their combined waters flow on for a couple more miles to pass under the B9007 road and immediately enter the Findhorn (57°31’40"N, 3°40’13"W).
