The river Łutownia (Polish pronunciation: [wuˈtɔvɲa]; Belarusian: Лутоўня), in north-eastern Poland, is a left-bank tributary of the Narewka river. It was formerly known in Polish as Łętownia [wɛnˈtɔvɲa], Lętownia [lɛnˈtɔvɲa], Łotownia [wɔˈtɔvɲa], Łutownica [wutɔvˈnit͡sa], Latownica [latɔvˈnit͡sa], Lutownia [luˈtɔvɲa], and Szczekotówka [ʂt͡ʂɛkɔˈtufka].
The Łutownia flows through the geographical region of Europe known as the Wysoczyzny Podlasko – Bialoruskie (English: Podlasie and Belarus Plateau) located within the Podlaskie Voivodeship of Poland. The river since its origin to the mouth flows through Puszcza Białowieska.
