It is bounded by the Murrumbidgee River in the west, Ginninderra Creek in the south and Gooromon Ponds in the east. The Australian Capital Territory has also formed a small part of the boundary since 1909, after a small part of land in the parish at coord|35|11|54|S|149|00|00|E|type:city was transferred to the Commonwealth. This area is just to the west of Dunlop. The Wallaroo road is the main road in the area, which comes off the Barton Highway.
