The Khyex River originates in high, glaciated peaks of the Kitimat Range, such as Mount Campagnolo and Khyex Tower. The river flows south to the Skeena River, collecting a number of tributary streams, the largest of which is Arden Creek. The Khyex River's watershed's land cover is classified as 32.4% Barren, 31.8% Coniferous, 12.4% Grassland, and 10.3% Snow/Glacier. The Indian reserves Kyex 64, Khyex 8, Ksagwisgwas 62,  and Ksagwisgwas 63 are located along the Khyex River. Natural history
The Khyex River supports of runs of salmonids including Chinook salmon, chum salmon, coho salmon, pink salmon, and steelhead trout. A  long canyon with falls and chutes acts as a barrier to anadromous fish passage, blocking such fish from reaching the upper Khyex watershed. The river also supports runs of eulachon. See also
