The rivière des Hurons (English: Hurons's River) is a river flowing in the heart of the municipality of Cantons-unis de Stoneham-et-Tewkesbury, located north of Quebec (city), in the La Jacques-Cartier Regional County Municipality, in the administrative region of Capitale-Nationale, in province from Quebec, to Canada.
This watercourse turns out to be the most important tributary of Saint-Charles Lake which constitutes one of the drinking water reserves of the city of Quebec.
The human presence is mainly marked by some low-density urban developments and significant recreational tourism infrastructure, notably a golf club and an alpine ski center, the Stoneham Mountain Resort.
The Hurons (Wendats), driven from the Ontario peninsula in 1651 by war, famine and epidemics, came to settle in the Quebec region, with the Jesuits who had evangelized them.
After having occupied several places, notably Sillery, Île d'Orléans and L'Ancienne-Lorette, they settled in La Jeune-Lorette, the site where the Village-des-Hurons, an Indian reserve now called Wendake, was established.
