Rivière Charpentier is a 125 km long right tributary of the Rivière aux Feuilles in the north of the Canadian province of Québec .
The remote river is rarely used by canoeists and kayakers. It has its origin west of the lake Lac Nedlouc , from where it flows in a north-westerly direction through untouched tundra and taiga. There are several waterfalls worth seeing, especially the Chutes de Burin and the Chute Bleu . The Rivière Charpentier flows into the eastern part of Lac Minto , whose outflow is the Rivière aux Feuilles.
