Macdonald River (Bendemeer)

Macdonald River (Bendemeer)

"There are two rivers named Macdonald River in New South Wales, Australia. See Macdonald River"

The Macdonald River in New South Wales is the headwater of the Namoi River. It rises in the heights of the Great Dividing Range east of Tamworth and flows generally north west through the villages of Woolbrook and Bendemeer. It joins up with the Manilla River to form the Namoi River.

Trout fishing is possible in the waters of the Macdonald River, its creeks and tributaries upstream of the New England Highway road bridge at Bendemeer.

The Namoi River Snapping Turtle or Bell's turtle (Elseya belli) is a species of turtle found only in the upper reaches of the Namoi River, Gwydir River and Macdonald Rivers on the North West Slopes of NSW, Australia.
