The rivière à la Catin is a tributary of the Cami River, flowing in the municipality of L'Anse-Saint-Jean and Rivière-Éternité, in the Fjord-du-Saguenay, in the administrative region of Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean, in the province from Quebec, to Canada. The course of the Catin river crosses the zec du Lac-Brébeuf.
The lac à Catin area is served by Chemin du Lac à la Catin which connects to the west with Chemin du Lac Travers and Chemin du Lac Desprez. The middle part of the Catin river valley is served by the Périgny road and the Lac de la Souris road, for forestry and recreational tourism activities. The lower part is served by Chemin du Lac Brébeuf. Some secondary forest roads serve this valley.
Forestry is the main economic activity in the sector; recreational tourism, second.
The surface of the Catin River 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.
