Rivière du Sud-Ouest is a gentle tributary flowing through Saint-Mathieu-de-Rioux to the Saint Lawrence, featuring easy paddling with only 2 rapids and 1 portage.

The slow-flowing waters make it ideal for beginners and families. Access is available from several points including Saint-Fabien village.
