The Erskine Creek, a perennial stream of the Hawkesbury-Nepean catchment, is located in the Blue Mountains region of New South Wales, Australia.
Course
Formed by the confluence of the Bedford and Glen Erskine creeks, the Erskine Creek (officially designated a river[1]) rises below Mount Erskine, between Bullaburra and Wentworth Falls, and flows generally south, north-east, and east, before reaching its confluence with the Nepean River, near Mulgoa. The river descends 329 metres (1,079 ft) over its 21-kilometre (13 mi) course.[3]
The river is entirely contained within the world heritage-listed Blue Mountains National Park.[4]
