The Bokhara River, a watercourse that is part of the Barwon catchment within the MurrayâÂÂDarling basin, is located in the South Downs region of Queensland, flowing downstream into the northâÂÂwestern slopes of New South Wales, Australia. It flows through the lower Balonne floodplain.
The river rises at the Balonne River south of Dirranbandi, within the state of Queensland, and is one of several branches of the Balonne that flows generally southâÂÂwest, joined by five minor tributaries, before reaching its confluence with the Barwon River, downstream from Brewarrina. The river descends over its course.
The Bokhara River, from its source towards its mouth, flows past the towns of Hebel and Goodooga. Water from the river is used by farmers to irrigate a variety of crops, including barley, wheat and cotton.
