Jacques Cartier
With a length of (or 177 km depending to the references), the Jacques-Cartier River takes it source in Jacques Cartier Lake, in Laurentides Wildlife Reserve, in the region of the Capitale-Nationale. The waters descend south to the mouth that flows into the St. Lawrence River between Cap-Santé and Donnacona, at 30 kilometers west of Quebec city. A lower segment of 41 km of the river is managed by the "zec de la Rivière-Jacques-Cartier".
