The Mehi River is a perennial watercourse that is part of the Barwon catchment within the Murray–Darling basin, located in the Orana district of New South Wales, Australia.
The river rises from the Gwydir River west of Pallamallawa, and flows generally west and west-southwest, joined by eight minor tributaries, before reaching its confluence with the Barwon River near Collarenebri. It descends 82 metres (269 ft) over its 314-kilometre (195 mi) course.[2]
