Geography

The main neighboring watersheds of the Bisby River are:

Bisby Lake

The Bisby River has its source at Bisby Lake (length: Шаблон:Convert; altitude: Шаблон:Convert), located in the municipality of Saint-Joseph-de-Coleraine, at Шаблон:Convert north of the Saint-François River. This head lake is located Шаблон:Convert south of the summit of Mont Nadeau (altitude: Шаблон:Convert).

Bisby River

The Bisby River flows for six kilometers, parallel to the Saint-François River and passing as close as Шаблон:Convert southeast of Mont Bengel (elevation: Шаблон:Convert) and at Шаблон:Convert southeast of Colline Brousseau.

After a six-kilometer journey, the Bisby River empties onto the east shore of lake Aylmer, at Шаблон:Convert north of the city limit of Disraeli (city), Шаблон:Convert north of the Disraeli (city) bridge and Шаблон:Convert southeast of the mouth of the Coleraine River.
