Rivière d'Aulnage
The Aulnage river takes its source at the confluence of three forest streams on the Sainte-Angélique Mountain (summit at ), in Saint-Léonard-de-Portneuf, near the northern limit of Saint-Basile. This source is located under Hydro-Québec's high-voltage lines at northwest of the mouth of the Aulnage river, at north-west of the village center of Saint-Basile, north-west of the mouth of the Rivière des Sept Îles and north of the mouth of the Portneuf River. Course of the rivière d'Aulnage
From its source on the Sainte-Angélique Mountain, the waters of the rivière d'Aulnage flow over:

The Aulnage river flows on the northwest bank of the rivière des Sept Îles. From the mouth of the rivière d'Aulnage, the current descends on to the south taking the course of the Sept Îles river, then on towards the southwest taking the course of Portneuf River by winding through the plain of the St. Lawrence, to the north shore of the St. Lawrence River. In Europe, an "alder grove" means a forest-type vegetation where predominantly the alder ("Alnus glutinosa"), a tree of the family Betulaceae. In eastern Canada, an alder grove can be both a forest and a wetland. Two types of alder are present on the territory, the crested alder ("Alnus viridis" var. "Crispa") and the rough alder ("Alnus incana"). These two species are not found in the same habitat. The first is in a dry environment, thus designating a vegetation of forest type and the second in a wet environment, therefore designating a vegetation typical of a wet environment. Aldering means the action of cleaning an alder grove. The toponym "Rivière d'Aulnage" was formalized on August 17, 1978, at the Place Names Bank of the Commission de toponymie du Québec.
