The Nakina River is the right source river of the Taku River in the Canadian province of British Columbia .
The Nakina River forms the outflow of Nakina Lake . It flows through the Stikine Plateau in a wide arc. Initially, it flows east, then north and finally west. About 15 km before its mouth, the water-rich right tributary Sloko River flows into the Nakina River. After about 110 km the Nakina River finally meets the Inklin River coming from the south, with which it joins the Taku River.
