The Hartland River is a perennial river[1] of the East Gippsland catchment, located in the Australian state of Victoria.
The Hartland River rises in a state forestry area on part of the Great Dividing Range and flows generally south by southeast before reaching its confluence with the Wombat Creek between Nowa Nowa and Orbost and north of the Princes Highway, in the Shire of East Gippsland. The river descends 170 metres (560 ft) over its 14-kilometre (8.7 mi) course.[2]
