The rivière aux Ours is a tributary of the Sainte-Anne river flowing in the municipality of Saint-Raymond, in the Portneuf Regional County Municipality, in the administrative region of Capitale-Nationale, in Quebec, in Canada.
The small valley of the Rivière aux Ours is served by the Corcoran road and the Chute-Panet road which runs along the south and east bank of the Sainte-Anne river, for the needs of agriculture, forestry and residents of the sector.
The main economic activities of the sector are agriculture and forestry.
The surface of the Bear River (except the rapids areas) is generally frozen from the beginning of December to the end of March; however, safe circulation on the ice is generally from late December to early March. The water level of the river varies with the seasons and the precipitation; the spring flood occurs in March or April.
