The Rivière Pika is a freshwater tributary of the Pikauba River, flowing in the administrative region of Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean, in the province of Quebec, in Canada. This watercourse successively crosses the regional county municipalities of:

  • MRC Lac-Saint-Jean-Est Regional County Municipality, in the unorganized territory of Lac-Achouakan;
  • MRC du Le Fjord-du-Saguenay Regional County Municipality, in the unorganized territory of Lac-Ministuk.

The upper part of the Pika River valley is accessible by route 169 (route d'Hébertville); other secondary forest roads have been developed in the sector for forestry and recreational tourism activities.[1][2]

Forestry is the primary economic activity in the sector; recreational tourism, second.

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