The Popelogan River is a tributary of the Upsalquitch River. It flows through the parish of Addington in Restigouche County in north-west New Brunswick, Canada.
In its course to the south, the Popelogan River flows through a valley in a terrain that becomes increasingly mountainous as it nears the Upsalquitch. Its main tributaries are the Gordon Brook and the Lake Popelogan Branch, which supplies Popelogan Lake. The upper part of the river is served by a forest road from Popelogan Depot.
