The Mattawasaga River is a tributary of Abitibi Lake, flowing through the townships of Harker Township, Marriott Township and Stoughton Township, in the Cochrane District, in Ontario, in Canada.
The Mattawasaga River flows entirely into forest land near the Quebec border in the Cochrane District. Forestry is the main economic activity of this hydrographic slope; recreational tourism activities, second.
The Mattawasaga River is served by Highway 101 (East-West), which runs along the north side of the upper partaway[ check spelling] of the river, then the south side eastward .
Annually, the surface of the river is usually frozen from mid-November to mid-April, but safe circulation on ice generally occurs from mid-December to late March.
The Mattawasaga River originates from a mountain stream (altitude: 314 metres (1,030 ft)) in Cochrane District, in northeastern Ontario.
