The Wetetnagami River is a tributary of the south shore of Nicobi Lake flowing in Quebec, in Canada, overlapping the administrative areas of:
This river successively crosses the townships of Charrette, Adhémar, Labrie, Moquin, Effiat and Muy. The surface of the Wetetnagami River is generally frozen from early December to late April. Forestry is the main economic activity of the sector; recreational tourism activities, second.
The Wetetnagami River Valley is served by the R1015 forest road (North-South direction) and the R1051 (East-West direction).
The proposed [Wetetnagami Lake Biodiversity Reserve] extends to 234.2 kilometres (145.53 mi) in the eastern part of Senneterre, Quebec, on the west side of the Gouin Reservoir. The territory of the reserve feeds the Wetetnagami River, as well as the lake of the same name and Lake Achepabanca. Many recreational and tourist activities are allowed on this reserve.
