The Gudar River has a drainage area about 7,011 square kilometers in size. It was bounded by the historical Endagabatan province. In the 1600s, emperor Susenyos I and his troops traversed this river to meet Hadiya leader Sidi Mohammed at the Battle of Hadiya. A Greek resident built the first bridge over the Gudar in 1897.
