Ellenborough River, a perennial river of the Hastings River catchment, is located in the Mid North Coast region of New South Wales, Australia.
Ellenborough River rises on the eastern slopes of the Great Dividing Range, southwest of Blue Knob, and flows generally northeast before reaching its confluence with the Hastings River, near Ellenborough. The river descends over its course.[1]
The river descends over Ellenborough Falls, a sheer drop of circa, located on the middle reaches of the river, south of Biriwal Bulga National Park.
