The North Chézine River valley is served by secondary forest roads for the needs of forestry and recreational tourism activities.

[1] The surface of the North Chézine River (except the rapids zones) is generally frozen from the beginning of December to the end of March, but the safe circulation on the ice is generally made from the end of December to the beginning of March.

The water level of the river varies with the seasons and the precipitation; the spring flood occurs in March or April.

The North Chézine River rises at the mouth of Corbin Lake (length: 0.5 kilometres (0.31 mi); altitude 681 metres (2,234 ft)) in the unorganized territory of Lac-Croche.

The toponym "Rivière Chézine nord" was formalized on December 5, 1968, at the Place Names Bank of the Commission de toponymie du Québec.
