The Icelandic River is a river in the Interlake Region of Manitoba. Its headwaters are near the Spruce Lakes system located by Manitoba Highway 68.[1]
The river is the source of an agricultural area in the north of the Interlake, flowing through and supporting the communities of Arborg and Riverton.[3] The East Interlake Conservation Area has assessed that 81% of the land use of the Icelandic River watershed is used for an agricultural purpose.[4]
The Icelandic River is also one of the most important spawning sites on the western shores of Lake Winnipeg for fish such as walleye, though recreation and agricultural activities have inhibited this capability recently.[4]
The river's mouth is located at Riverton, where the water flows into Lake Winnipeg.
