Burdekin

The Burdekin rises on the northern slopes of Boulder Mountain in the Valley of Lagoons, on the western side of the Seaview Range, and flows south-east through the dry tropical uplands of north Queensland towards the Coral Sea, more than 200 kilometres away. In flood it carries more water than any other river in Australia. Its upper course, around the Valley of Lagoons, lies in the language country of the Gugu Badhun.
