The Rocky River is a perennial river of the Snowy River catchment, located in the East Gippsland region of the Australian state of Victoria.
The Rocky River rises below Mount Murrungowar in a state forestry area west of the locality of Murrungowar, and flows generally southwest before reaching its confluence with the Jack River, within the Brodribb Flora Reserve in the Shire of East Gippsland. The river descends over its 15km (09miles) course.[2]
The catchment area of the river is administered by the East Gippsland Catchment Management Authority.
