The Opémisca River originates from a forest stream (elevation: 358 metres (1,175 ft)) in the Cuvier township. This source is located at:

• 7.4 kilometres (4.6 mi) North of Opémisca Lake;
• 10.8 kilometres (6.7 mi) Northeast of the mouth of the Opémisca River;
• 18.6 kilometres (11.6 mi) Northeast of the mouth of Opémisca Lake;
• 92.5 kilometres (57.5 mi) Northeast of the mouth of the Chibougamau River;
• 155.8 kilometres (96.8 mi) Northeast of the mouth of Goéland Lake (Waswanipi River);
• 21.9 kilometres (13.6 mi) North of the village center of Chapais;
• 28.6 kilometres (17.8 mi) West of downtown Chibougamau;
• 329.3 kilometres (204.6 mi) South of the mouth of the Nottaway River.

From its source, the Opémisca River flows on 39.1 kilometres (24.3 mi) according to the following segments:

• 4.8 kilometres (3.0 mi) northeasterly to a creek (coming from the East);
• 0.8 kilometres (0.50 mi) northwesterly to a creek (coming from the Northeast);
• 4.9 kilometres (3.0 mi) southwesterly to a creek (coming from the South);
• 12.2 kilometres (7.6 mi) northwesterly to a creek (coming from the Northeast);
• 13.2 kilometres (8.2 mi) southwesterly, crossing a lake at a distance of 1.2 kilometres (0.75 mi) (length: 1.7 kilometres (1.1 mi); altitude: 358 metres (1,175 ft)) to a forest road (East-West direction). Note: This lake straddles the townships of Rageot and Cuvier;
• 3.2 kilometres (2.0 mi) southwesterly to mouth.[2]

The Opémisca River flows into a small bay on the north shore of Opémisca Lake, at 0.9 kilometres (0.56 mi) west of the mouth of Leclerc Creek and at 0.4 kilometres (0.25 mi) East of the boundary of the Township of Opémisca. From this mouth, the current flows through Opémisca Lake to 8.3 kilometres (5.2 mi) towards the Southwest; this lake is crossed towards the West by the Chibougamau River. From there, the current runs Southwest through the Chibougamau River, tien through Waswanipi River to the East shore of Goéland Lake (Waswanipi River). The latter is crossed to the northwest by the Waswanipi River which is a tributary of Matagami Lake.
