The Musquodoboit Valley region is located within the northeastern reaches of the Halifax Regional Municipality.
Entirely rural, the region shares more in common economically with the neighboring rural areas of adjacent Pictou and Colchester counties, as well as the nearby Eastern Shore region, as the economy of the valley relies on forestry and agriculture.
The Musquodoboit River bisects the valley, the headwaters of which are at the confluence of the North and South branches of the Musquodoboit River.
The drainage area of the river is 1,316 square kilometres (508 sq mi).
The mouth of the river is at Musquodoboit Harbour, which in turn flows into the Atlantic Ocean.
