It flows from the northwestern slopes of the Australian Alps, north and joins with the Big River.[3] CourseThe Taponga River rises below Rough Hill, part of the Great Dividing Range and the river flows generally north by east through the Big River State Forest, joined by four minor tributaries before reaching its confluence with the Big River south of {{VICcity|Eildon}}. The river descends {{convert|521|m}} over its {{convert|15|km|adj=on}} course.[3] EtymologyThe name of the river is derived from the Australian Aboriginal Daungwurrung word tap, meaning a bronzewing pigeon.[2] The river has variously been called the Wild Dog River and the Right Hand Branch of the Big River.[4] RecreationThe river is popular for fishing, with abundant rainbow trout to {{convert|220|g}} and a few large brown trout in the period from April to June. There are usually some small river blackfish.[5] A camping area is available, approximately {{convert|19|km}} east of {{VICcity|Marysville}} on the Eildon–Jamieson Road or the Big River State Forest Road. There is no booking system for the camp site.[6] See also{{Stack|{{portal|Victoria|Water}}}}
