The Syamzhena () is a river in Sokolsky and Syamzhensky Districts of Vologda Oblast in Russia. It is a left tributary of the Kubena. It is long, and the area of its basin . Its main tributaries are the Shichenga (right) and the Bolshoy Pungul (right). The center of Syamzhensky District, the selo of Syamzha, is located on both banks of the Syamzhena.
The name of the Syamzhena originates from Finnic languages and means "moss water" or "water from the swamp". The names of Syamzhensky District and its center, the selo of Syamzha (which was established in 1935 by merging a number of villages at the crossing of the Syamzhena by the highway connecting Vologda and Arkhangelsk) are derived from the Syamzhena.
