The Bârsa is a left tributary of the river Olt in Romania. It discharges into the Olt near Feldioara. It starts at the confluence of two headwaters Bârsa Groșetului and Bârsa Tămașului. As several tributaries also have the name Bârsa, in order to differentiate them, the main course of the river is frequently referred to as Bârsa Mare.
