About[]

The river rises on the northern slope of Morne Baptiste, at the confluence of two ravines, Ravine Solage and Ravine Manet. It flows north, forming part of the border between Bombardopolis and Môle Saint-Nicolas, through the Cotes-de-Fer section of MSL, and passing the Habitation Morne-Blanc. It then flows along Route 102 for several miles until it reaches the town center, draining into the Môle Bay.
