The Old River is a perennial river of the Port Phillip catchment, located in the Western District region of the Australian state of Victoria.

The Old River rises below Mount Bullengarook, part of the Blackwood Ranges of the Great Dividing Range, in remote country within the Lerderderg State Park. The river flows generally south by west before reaching its confluence with the Lerderderg River below Mount Blackwood. The river descends approximately 304 metres (997 ft) over its 7-kilometre (4.3 mi) course.^[2]
