The Steenenhoek Canal (in Dutch : Kanaal van Steenenhoek) is a Dutch canal in southeastern Netherlands.
The canal runs from the northern part of Gorinchem where it connects to Linge. The canal goes west along the railway and A15 (Rotterdam-Nijmegen) motorway. Then it flows to the North of Boven-Hardinxveld to connect with Beneden Merwede (Lower Merwede) at Neder-Hardinxveld in the municipality of Hardinxveld-Giessendam where a pumping station is used to maintain the water level.
