Features and locationThe Wentworth River rises below Mount Birregun east of {{VICcity|Dargo}}, part of the Great Dividing Range, about {{convert|20|km}} southeast of {{VICcity|Dinner Plain}} and a similar distance southwest of {{VICcity|Omeo}}. The river flows generally southeast, then southwest, then south in a highly meandering course through a state forestry area, joined by four minor tributaries, before reaching its confluence with the Wonnangatta River and Swamp Creek to form the Mitchell River north of the Mitchell River National Park, in the Shire of East Gippsland. The river descends {{convert|866|m}} over its {{convert|59|km|adj=on}} course.[6] EtymologyIn the Australian Aboriginal Braiakaulung dialect of the Gunai language, there are two names for the Wentworth River; Tally-yalmy, meaning "shark" referring to an oral legend that a long time ago, "old man Blackfellow" caught a little shark at the mouth of the Wentworth River;[1][2] and Daberda'bara, meaning "rocky bank."[3][4] See also{{stack|{{portal|Victoria}}}}
