Talayarde North-East River

The Talayarde North East River is a tributary of the Talayarde River flowing in the administrative region of Capitale-Nationale, at Quebec, in Canada. The course of the river crosses the municipality of Saint-Gabriel-de-Valcartier (MRC La Jacques-Cartier Regional County Municipality) and the city of Saint-Raymond, in the Portneuf Regional County Municipality).

The valley of the Talayarde North-East river is mainly served by the forest road R0355 which goes up north passing in the upper part of the west side of the valley and from the east side in the lower part. Some secondary roads serve the territory for the needs of forestry and recreational tourism activities.Atlas of Canada - Department of Natural Resources Canada - Talayarde Northeast River
