Sauble River (Ontario)

The Sauble River is a river in Bruce County, Ontario which flows from headwaters in Chatsworth County to empty into Lake Huron at Sauble Beach, Ontario.

Sauble Falls Provincial Park is located at a waterfall close to where the Sauble is joined by its tributary, the Rankin River.

The river was originally called Riviere aux Saubles, or "sandy river", by the French. It was named the River aux Saubles in 1759 and became the Sauble River in 1859.

The community of Tara, Ontario is located on the river.
