The Hantan (Korean: 한탄강) is a river flowing from Pyonggang, North Korea across the border through Gangwon and Gyeonggi provinces in South Korea. It is a tributary of the Imjin River, which eventually joins the Han River and empties into the Yellow Sea. The Hantan River is a popular site for white-water rafting.
