River course
The Rivière Sainte-Marguerite Nord-Est has its origin in an area rich in lakes in the Monts Valin . In the upper reaches it flows in a southeast direction through the Canadian Shield in the south of the Labrador Peninsula . Later he gradually turns south. It flows through the southwest of the MRC La Haute-Côte-Nord . 6 km west of Sacré-Cœur , the river turns sharply to the west. The Route 172 from Tadoussac to Saguenay crosses the river. The national road runs along its north bank for the last 5 kilometers to its mouth. Eventually this flows into the Rivière Sainte-Marguerite - about 2 km before it flows into the Baie Sainte-Marguerite of the Saguenay Fjord . The Rivière Sainte-Marguerite Nord-Est has a length of about 1050 km. It drains an area of 1100 km². The mean discharge at the mouth is 30.6 m³ / s.
