Little Yarra River
The Little Yarra River is a perennial river of the Port Phillip catchment, located in the Greater Metropolitan Melbourne region of the Australian state of Victoria.
Location and features
The Little Yarra River rises in native forests in the Yarra Ranges around Powelltown in east–central Victoria. The river flows generally west by north, passing through rural areas and joined by one minor tributary, before reaching its confluence with the Yarra River west of the town of Yarra Junction.[3][4] The river descends 147 metres (482 ft) over its 24 kilometres (15 mi) course.[2]
The river is traversed by the Warburton Highway east of Yarra Junction.[2]
