Eckles Run is a tributary of the Beaver River in western Pennsylvania. The stream rises in south-central Lawrence County and flows east entering the Beaver River at Wampum, Pennsylvania. The watershed is roughly 35% agricultural, 54% forested and the rest is other uses. This is the only stream of this name in the United States.
