The Manouane River, a tributary of the Peribonka River, flows in unorganized territory of Mont-Valin, Quebec, in the administrative region of Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean, in Quebec, Canada.

Forestry is the main economic activity of this valley; recreational tourism activities, second; hydroelectricity, third.

Forest Roads R0258 (North-South) and R0251 serve the Manouane River Valley, the Georges River and the Manouaniche River.

The surface of the Péribonka River is usually frozen from late November to early April, however, safe ice movement is generally from mid-December to late March.
