Beaurivage River

The Beaurivage River is a tributary of the Chaudière River which in turn flows into the St. Lawrence River. The Beaurivage river crosses the Quebec municipalities (in Canada) of:

MRC Robert-Cliche Regional County Municipality: municipality of Saint-Séverin; MRC La Nouvelle-Beauce Regional County Municipality: municipality of Saint-Elzéar; MRC of Lotbinière Regional County Municipality: municipalities of Saint-Sylvestre, Saint-Patrice-de-Beaurivage and Saint-Gilles; Lévis, a city. The Beaurivage River is a river in Quebec that flows from Thetford Mines and empties in the Chaudière River, near Saint-Romuald, Quebec. It is a body of water mostly known for its annual canoe race beginning at Saint-Patrice-de-Beaurivage, Quebec and finishing at Saint-Gilles, Quebec.

The main neighboring watersheds of the Beaurivage river are:

north side: Chaudière River, St. Lawrence River; east side: Chaudière River, Cugnet River, Bras d'Henri; south side: Fourchette River, Saint-André River, Armagh River, Filkars River, Palmer River; west side: Noire River, Rouge River, Du Chêne River, Henri River. The Beaurivage river is a river of Quebec, whose sources begin on the heights which crown the township of Broughton, (MRC Les Appalaches Regional County Municipality), in the part East of the municipality of Saint-Sylvestre, almost at the limit of Saint-Séverin. This head area is located east of Mont Handkerchief, south-east of Mont Sainte-Marguerite, south of Mont Saint-André and west of the village of Saint-Séverin. Its course crosses several marshy sectors and draws many meanders. It receives the Bras d'Henri at the height of Saint-Gilles, then makes a bend in an easterly direction, which allows it to water Saint-Étienne-de-Lauzon and join the Chaudière River a few kilometers before the falls, near Saint-Rédempteur. About 65 kilometres (40 mi) long, the Beaurivage drains a basin of some 750 kilometres (466.03 mi).
