The Pembina River is a tributary of the Athabasca River in central Alberta, Canada.
Pembina is a Canadian French name for the high bush cranberry (Viburnum trilobum). The river gives the name to the Pembina oil field, an oil- and gas-producing region centered on Drayton Valley. The environmentalist group Pembina Institute also took its name from the river.
