The river rises on the western slopes of the Great Dividing Range, near Greenland Swamp, and flows generally north and north-west, joined by three tributaries before reaching its confluence with the Numeralla River, near Warrens Corner, descending 317 metres (1,040 ft) over its 36-kilometre (22 mi) course.[2][1]
