Bendigo Creek
The 883rd longest river in the world
Bendigo Creek is a seasonal stream, or creek, in North Central Victoria, Australia. The city of Bendigo is named for the creek and valley in which it was founded in 1851. Gold was officially discovered on Bendigo Creek in late October 1851, transforming the area in less than a year from a secluded bushland to a scene which "beggared description" as tens of thousands of men, women and children came to the area during the gold rush at Bendigo Creek in 1852.
Flows through: Australia.
