The river rises on the north western side of theFiery Range in theSnowy Mountains at 1,330 metres (4,360 ft) and flows generally north west, joined by five minortributaries towards itsmouth at theconfluence with theTumut River atTumut; dropping 1,060 metres (3,480 ft) over thecourse of the river's length of 56 kilometres (35 mi).[1]
The river flows through the locality ofGoobarragandra; and theHume andHovell Walking Track follows the river for a short duration, about 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) south of Tumut.[4]
