Gungarlin River
Gungarlin River located in New South Wales in the Kosciuszko National Park. The Gungarlin River flows through the Snowy Plains, eventually feeding into the Snowy River and then into Lake Jindabyne, which forms part of the Snowy Mountains Scheme. The Gungarlin River is a popular summer destination for trout fishing, cycling and hiking.
The Snowy Scheme captures water from the lower Gungarlin River at the Gungarlin Weir and diverts water to the Island Bend Reservoir. The Snowy Water Inquiry Outcomes Implementation Deed identifies environmental water allocations to the released from the Gungarlin Weir as part of the Snowy Montane Rivers Increased Flows. The reaches below the weir currently contain no base flow.
There are many mountain huts along or close to the river including Daveys Hut, Botherum Plain Hut, Buhlmans, Mrs Caseys, and Kellys Hut.[1][2]
