Hunter River (sh)




River, eastern New South Wales, Australia.

Rising in the Mount Royal Range of the Eastern Highlands, it flows southwest through the Glenbawn Reservoir and past Denman. There, joined by its major tributary, the Goulburn River, the Hunter turns southeast, entering the Tasman Sea at Newcastle after a course of 287 mi (462 km). Its estuary forms one of the state's largest harbours.
