Swampy Plain River (and in some places Swampy Plains River), a perennial stream that is part of the Murray catchment within the Murray–Darling basin, is located in the Snowy Mountains bioregion of New South Wales, Australia. ==Course and features== The river rises on the southern slopes of Mount Kosciuszko within the Kosciuszko National Park and, at an elevation of , is believed to be the highest river in Australia. From its headwaters, the river flows generally south, north and north west, joined by nine tributaries including the Geehi River, before reaching its confluence with the Murray River, near Khancoban, upstream from the Bringenbrong Bridge; descending over its course.〔 Swampy Plain River is impounded by Lake Cootapatamba close to its source, and by Khancoban Dam, close to its mouth.〔〔 Located immediately upstream of the Khancoban Reservoir is the Murray-2 Power Station, a conventional hydroelectric power station. Water from the power plant is discharged into the reservoir, before passing over the spillway of Khancoban Dam, and down the Swampy Plain River. The river passes near the towns of Geehi and Khancoban. The river is a popular place for fly fishing, with a significant stock of brown and rainbow trout. 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「Swampy Plain River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
