Guy Fawkes River

Guy Fawkes River, Guy Fawkes National Park, NSW

The Guy Fawkes River is a river in northern New South Wales, Australia that runs south to north along the valley of the Demon Fault Line in the Guy Fawkes River National Park.

The river rises in the Snowy Range, an eastern spur of the Great Dividing Range, near the village of Ebor, New South Wales. The river also has tributaries near Round Mountain, the highest peak of the New England Tableland region. The river spills over Ebor Falls and enters a deep valley, flowing generally northward and eventually joining the Clarence River.

The river is named after Guy Fawkes. The expedition led by John Oxley were the first Europeans to visit the river,Vorlage:Fact and apparently camped there on Guy Fawkes Day, 1821.

The Bicentennial National Trail runs along the western side of Guy Fawkes River on what is currently a Travelling Stock Route.
