Maribyrnong Valley

The Maribyrnong Valley, north-west of Melbourne, lies along the Maribyrnong River and diverges into the river’s tributaries at Keilor. It is a relatively small part of the Maribyrnong River catchment.

The origins of the catchment streams are, working from west to north: Jacksons Creek and Riddell Creek (Macedon Ranges); Emu Creek (Romsey); and Deep Creek (Lancefield). Jacksons and Deep Creeks converge at Bulla, west of the Melbourne Airport, whereupon the resulting single stream becomes the Maribyrnong River.
