The Bogdashkina (Russian: Богдашкина) is a river in the Sakha Republic (Yakutia), Russia. It has a length of 142 kilometres (88 mi) and a drainage basin area of 1,920 square kilometres (740 sq mi).[1]
The river flows north of the Arctic Circle, across desolate territories of the Allaikhovsky District.[2][3]

The main tributary of the Bogdashkina is the 51 km (32 mi) long Maly Bogdashkina on the left, as well as the 31 km (19 mi) long Bezymyanka (Безымянка) and the 26 km (16 mi) long Iterbashevo (Итербашево) on the right. There are many small lakes in the basin, including Shilikino lake just west of the last stretch of the Bogdashkina.[2]
