    Wow, so many responses. Thanks to everyone for responding. So much useful information. So, I followed some of the advice and made the river flow into a larger river that flows on the outside of the mountains. Don't mind the ugly transition the river have, I'll fix up that later.

    This does bring up a few other questions tough. How does this apply to ponds and smaller amounts of water like streams? As for the resolution, I'll bump it up to 5x when I render the final output. Currently have it low to save computing power. As for the size of the area. I'm not quite sure, but I'd guess that the full width of the area inside the mountains around 5-10 km.

    There is no behaviour difference between rivers and streams, lakes and ponds. All behave in the same way.
    The only difference is the resolution of your map - big water ways will be seen and very small ones will not.
    Btw what you drew are mountains ? I thought it was a volcano with the lake being a residual caldera.

    Okay as I thought then. In the case that I actually feel that they might be seen I'll just grab use some erosion to carve in the streams.
    And yes, those are mountains, although the biggest mountain on the map is a cooled down volcano with a slight downwards bump on the top, so it's not completely wrong.
