The rivière à la Chute (French pronunciation: [ʁivjɛʁ a la ʃyt], "River of the Fall") is a tributary of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, flowing in the municipality of L'Île-d'Anticosti, in the Minganie Regional County Municipality, in the administrative region of Côte-Nord, in province of Quebec, in Canada.

A forest road (north–south direction) serves the west side of this valley, connecting the Pointe-Sud-Ouest of the island, the place called Tour-de-Jupiter (located on the watershed) and the main road passing on the northern slope of the island. A branch of this road descends towards the south-east to join the forest road along the southern coast of the island.
