The Armand-Jude River is a tributary of the north bank of the rivière du Seigneur on the northwest bank of the Saint Lawrence river. This stream flows in the municipality of Les Éboulements, in the Charlevoix Regional County Municipality, in the administrative region of Capitale-Nationale, in the province of Quebec, in Canada.

The valley of this stream is mainly served by the path of Saint-Hilarion which goes north to the east side. The lower part is served by the chemin du rang Sainte-Marie which goes up the valley of the Lord's river. Forestry is the main economic activity in this valley.

The water level of the river varies with the seasons and the precipitation; the spring flood occurs in March or April.
