The Nymboida River is one of New South Wales' most spectacular and genuinely wild river systems, originating in the Dorrigo Highlands of northern New South Wales before tumbling down through rugged mountain terrain to eventually join the Clarence River at the Clarence River Gorge. With no dams restricting its flow and large portions of its banks protected within state and national parks, the Nymboida remains one of the few truly undammed and unexploited river systems left in Australia. Famous among whitewater enthusiasts for its rafting and kayaking, the river is equally celebrated among serious anglers as one of the finest native fish fisheries in the country. The Nymboida is a freestone river fed by highland rainfall, characterized by fast-moving whitewater sections, deep pools, riffles, and pocket water — a dynamic and ever-changing environment that rewards skilled and adventurous anglers.
