The Biały Dunajec is a river in Poland, the right tributary of the Dunajec. The river arises at an altitude of approx. 730 m in Poronin from the junction of the Zakopianka with the Poroniec. Then, the Biały Dunajec river flows through the eponymous Biały Dunajec village, Szaflary and Nowy Targ, where at an altitude of about 577 m it joins the Czarny Dunajec, giving rise to the Dunajec. Before its mouth, the river flows by the Bór na Czerwonem nature reserve. The Biały Dunajec River is formed in Rów Podtatrzański, while its lower course and mouth are located in the Orava-Nowy Targ Basin.

In the upper part of the course, down to Szaflary, the river has a more mountain character. There are large boulders, deep baths and rapids in its bed, and the width of the river ranges from several meters to several dozen. Below Szaflary, the river is regulated and separated by high concrete sills.
