The headwaters of the river rise on the Cape York Peninsula approximately {{convert|12|km|mi|0}} from the west coast and flows south through uninhabited country along the coastal plain and eventually discharges into Archer Bay, along with the Archer and Watson River,[2] just north of Aurukun[3] and then onto the Gulf of Carpentaria. Four tributaries contribute to the Ward; Coconut Creek, Tappelbang Creek, Sandy Creek and Possum Creek.[1] The river is located within the Watson River catchment and in 2009 the river was considered for nomination as a wild river.[4] See also{{stack|{{Portal|Water|Environment|Queensland}}}}
