The Utukok River is a 225-mile (362 km) long stream in the North Slope Borough of the U.S. state of Alaska. It rises in the De Long Mountains at the confluence of Kogruk and Tupik creeks and flows north, northeast, and then northwest. It empties into Kasegaluk Lagoon on the Chukchi Sea of the Arctic Ocean, 20 miles (32 km) southwest of Icy Cape.

Utoqaq, meaning old or ancient, is the Inuit name for Icy Cape. Variant names used for the river in the 19th century included "Utukak" and "Ootokok".
