The Right Fork Little Kanawha River is a tributary of the Little Kanawha River, {{convert|14.1|mi|km}} long,[3] in central West Virginia in the United States. Via the Little Kanawha and Ohio rivers, it is part of the watershed of the Mississippi River, draining an area of {{convert|37.6|sqmi|km2}}[4] in a rural region.

The Right Fork Little Kanawha River rises in extreme southeastern Upshur County, approximately {{convert|4|mi|km}} west of Helvetia, and flows generally westward along the boundary between Upshur and Webster counties; then along the boundary between Lewis and Webster counties, through the community of Cleveland. Near its mouth it flows through a small portion of the eastern extremity of Braxton County, and flows into the Little Kanawha River from the south near the boundary between Braxton and Lewis counties, approximately {{convert|2|mi|km}} southwest of the community of Wildcat.[5]

Upstream of Cleveland the Right Fork collects a tributary named Left Fork Right Fork Little Kanawha River,[6] which flows westward for {{convert|7.1|mi|km}}[3] through southern Upshur County.[5]
