The Petite Creuse (French: la Petite Creuse, the small Creuse) is a 95.2 km (59.2 mi) long river in Allier and Creuse départements, in central France. Its source is at Treignat, 2.5 km (1.6 mi) southeast of the village. It is a left tributary of the Creuse River into which it flows at Fresselines. The river is dammed at several locations creating valley lakes that are extensively used for recreation such as fishing, boating and swimming. The dams are used to generate electricity and to provide water treatment plants providing drinking water to local communities.
