The rivière aux Écorces North-East is a tributary of the rivière aux Écorces, flowing in the unorganized territories of Lac-Jacques-Cartier, the La Côte-de-Beaupré Regional County Municipality, in the administrative region of Capitale-Nationale, in the province of Quebec, Canada. The course of the rivière aux Écorces North-East crosses the western part of the Laurentides Wildlife Reserve.
The valley of the rivière aux Écorces Nord-Est is served indirectly by the route 169 and directly by the forest road R0261 which goes up the valley of the rivière aux Écorces and the Rivière aux Écorces Nord-East. This valley is also served by some secondary forest roads, especially for forestry and recreational tourism activities.
Forestry is the main economic activity in this valley; recreational tourism, second.
The surface of the rivière aux Écorces North-East is usually frozen from the beginning of December to the end of March, however the safe circulation on the ice is generally made from mid-December to mid-March.
The main watersheds neighboring the rivière aux Écorces North-East are:
The rivière aux Écorces North-East has its source at Petit lac Vézina (length: 0.6 kilometres (0.37 mi); altitude: 857 metres (2,812 ft)) in the forest zone in the Laurentides Wildlife Reserve. This source is located at:
From its source (Petit lac Vézina), the rivière aux Écorces North-East flows over 54.3 kilometres (33.7 mi) with a drop of 380 metres (1,250 ft) entirely in the forest zone, depending on the segments following:
Upper course of the Rivière aux Écorces Nort-East (segment of 23.5 kilometres (14.6 mi))
Intermediate course of the Rivière aux Écorces North-East (segment of 17.7 kilometres (11.0 mi))
Lower reaches of the North East Bark River (segment of 13.1 kilometres (8.1 mi))
The northeastern rivière aux Écorces North-East flows on the northeast bank of the rivière aux Écorces. This confluence is located at:
From the mouth of the rivière aux Écorces North-East, the current successively follows the course of the rivière aux Écorces on 83.6 kilometres (51.9 mi) generally towards the north, the course of the Pikauba River on 10.6 kilometres (6.6 mi) generally towards the north, crosses Kenogami Lake on 17.6 kilometres (10.9 mi) north-east until barrage de Portage-des-Roches, then follows the course from the Chicoutimi River on 26.2 kilometres (16.3 mi) east, then the northeast and the course of the Saguenay River on 114.6 kilometres (71.2 mi) east to Tadoussac where it merges with the Saint Lawrence estuary.

The toponym “Rivière aux Écorces Nord-Est” was formalized on December 5, 1968, at the Place Names Bank of the Commission de toponymie du Québec. [2]
