Kamikawa (上川郡 (天塩国), Kamikawa-gun (Teshio no kuni)) is a district located in Kamikawa Subprefecture, Hokkaidō, Japan. Confusingly, there is a district of the same name, Kamikawa (Ishikari) District, in the same subprefecture. When Hokkaidō was divided into provinces and districts, this district was placed under Teshio Province.
