The Debin (Russian: Дебин) is a river in the Yagodninsky district of Magadan Oblast, Russia. It is a left hand tributary of the Kolyma. Its length is 248 kilometres (154 mi), counting the length of the Archagyl stream at its head, and it has a drainage basin of 5,530 square kilometres (2,140 sq mi).[1][2]
Yagodnoye village is located on the left bank of the Debin; the R504 Kolyma Highway crosses the river in its middle course and runs on the northern side of the river, roughly parallel to its lower course until it bends northwards near Debin.[3]
The name of the river is based on the Yakut word "daebin" (дьэбин), meaning "rust".[4]
