Rufus River


Rufus River, a watercourse of the Murray catchment and part of the Murray-Darling basin, is located in the western Riverina region of south western New South Wales, Australia.
The river leaves Lake Victoria, flowing generally west and then south-west, before reaching its confluence with the Murray River, at Lock 7, near Rufus.
Rufus River was visited by European explorer, Charles Sturt, in 1830, and named after his red-haired travelling companion, George Macleay.
