The Lynd River is a river located on the Cape York Peninsula in Far North Queensland, Australia. ==Course and features== The headwaters of the river rise in the Forty Mile Scrub National Park in the Great Dividing Range and flows in a north westerly direction. It flows down the range and onto the plains of the Gulf Country past cattle stations such Torwood, The Lake outstation and Bulimba. Continuing north it discharges into the Mitchell River near Staaten River National Park. From source to mouth, the Lynd River is joined by twenty tributaries including the Tate River, descending over its course.〔 In its upper reaches, the river is crossed by the Kennedy Highway. The Mitchell River Fan Aggregation, a freshwater wetland area located approximately south east of Kowanyama, is fed by the Mitchell, Palmer and Lynd Rivers. Riparian vegetation found along the river include ''Melaleuca fluviatilis'', ''Casuarina cunninghamiana'', ''Pandanus spiralis'' and ''Ficus racemosa'' which provide most of the cover. The traditional owners of the upper catchment area are the Kunjen peoples. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lynd River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
