This river successively crosses the townships of Charette and Adhémar. Forestry is the main economic activity of the sector; recreational tourism, second, particularly thanks to the Lake Wetetnagami Biodiversity Reserve. The Macoustigane River Valley is served by the forest road (east-west) passing south of Wetetnagami Lake in the Wetetnagami Lake Biodiversity Reserve. The surface of the Macoustigane River is usually frozen from early November to mid-May, however, safe ice movement is generally from mid-November to mid-April. Geography{{columns-list|colwidth=30em|The surrounding hydrographic slopes of the Macoustigane River are:
The Macoustigane River originates in Senneterre, at the mouth of an unidentified lake (length: {{convert|1.0|km}}; maximum width: {{convert|0.5|km}}; altitude: {{convert|462|m}}). This lake is located at the foot of a mountain whose summit reaches {{convert|552|m}} and which has a 76-meter cliff bounding the southeast of the lake. The mouth of this head lake is located at:
South of the mouth of the Nicobi River;
The Macoustigane River empties onto the east bank of the Wetetnagami River, which generally flows northward across Wetetnagami Lake before spilling into Nicobi Lake. The latter is the head lake of the Nicobi River. The latter flows north to discharge on the southeast bank of the Opawica River. The latter goes back to the north until it meets the Chibougamau River; this confluence is the source of the Waswanipi River. The course flows westward through the northern portion of Lake Waswanipi, Goéland Lake and Olga Lake, before pouring into the Matagami Lake which in turn flows into the Nottaway River, a tributary of Rupert Bay (James Bay). The confluence of the Macoustigane River with the Wetetnagami River is located at:
