The Crawford River or Smoky River,[2] a perennial river of the Glenelg Hopkins catchment, is located in the Western District of Victoria, Australia.
The Crawford River rises north of Branxholme, and flows generally west by south through the Crawford River Regional Park, before reaching its confluence with the Glenelg River at Dartmoor, descending 111 metres (364 ft) over its 75-kilometre (47 mi) course.[1]
