Brokenhead River
The Brokenhead River is a river in eastern Manitoba, Canada. It flows north from its source in the Brokenhead Swamp within Sandilands Provincial Forest, to its mouth in Lake Winnipeg south of Stoney Point.

The Brokenhead is navigable by canoe for much of its length. Fishers based in the Brokenhead Ojibway Nation use the lower reaches of the river to access Lake Winnipeg.
