The Alegre River (Portuguese: Rio Alegre) is a river in the state of Mato Grosso, Brazil.
The Alegre River rises in the 120,092 hectares (296,750 acres) Serra de Santa Bárbara State Park, created in 1997. It flows in a generally northwest direction, receiving the Barbado River on its left, then flows north until it joins the Guaporé River from the left.[1]
