The Iditarod River is a river in western Alaska. The river begins north of Chuathbaluk and flows convert|325|mi|km|0|lk=on northeast and then west to the Innoko River. [USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). [gnis3|1403698 Andreafsky River] ]

Iditarod is an Anglicization of the Ingalik Athabascan name for the river, "Haiditirod" or "Haidilatna", which is probably an English version of the name of a village on the river, that may have corresponded with the village called Iditarod in the 1900s.
