Graniczna is a river in Poland, located in Pomeranian Voivodeship, Słupsk County, and Gmina Dębnica Kaszubska, within the Polanów Upland. Stretching 10.7 km, it is a right-bank tributary of the Skotawa and lies within the buffer zone of the Słupia Valley Landscape Park. Between 2008 and 2009, the river was found to support populations of river trout, northern pike, European perch, and three-spined stickleback.
The Polish name Graniczna was officially adopted on 1 October 1948 by a decree from the Ministers of Public Administration and Recovered Territories, replacing the German names Grenzbach or Grenz Bach.
