The Hasbani, occasionally Hazbani or Chatzbani (Arabic الحاصباني, DMG al - Hasbani ), is next to Dan and Banyas one of the three sources of the Jordan. In Hebrew the river is called Nachal Snir Nachal Senir or ( שניר ).

The Hasbani rises at Mount Hermon in Southern Lebanon. From there, it flows south and joins in northern Israel in the northern Huleebene with Banyas and Dan Jordan.

The Hasbani supplies in the year about 150 million cubic meters of water; so that it is after Dan 's second largest source of the river Jordan. Its catchment area is 600 square kilometers, however, about three times as large as that of Banyas and Dan together.
