I am not really sure of the exact definitions and English is not my first language, so might be.

It has water all year round, is 55km long and eventually feeds into another bigger river.

Here where I took the pictures it is pretty shallow and slow flowing, but that is because it was artificially split into several smaller rivers over the course of several kilometers. Apparently has something to do with minimizing flooding.

    Im honestly not real sure what the formal definition is. It just looks shallow enough to not have water all year round which is what I think of as a creek. Makes me wonder if the multiple rivers become one during some high season.

    I certainly don't think of it like that. A creek to me is mostly defined as "a fairly small river where you want to go splash around in for awhile, but it doesn't have to be a big thing and also you float down it in inner tubes." I definitely don't see them as mutually exclusive, but its all great stuff either way.
