Mitchell River

Mitchell River Catchment Area

Listed as a heritage river in 1992, the Mitchell River and its tributaries rise in the Alpine Region on the southern slopes of the Great Dividing Range and empty into the Gippsland Lakes near Eagle Point.  Fed by rivers including the Wonnangatta, Moroka, Wongungurra, Crooked, Dargo and the Wentworth River, the Mitchell River is the only major Victorian river that runs wild from its beginning in the High Country, to its end at the Gippsland Lakes. The Mitchell River flows through forested mountains within the Mitchell River National Park to the coastal plains and the Mitchell River Flats that extend from Lindenow to Bairnsdale.
