Geography
The Huon River forms most of the south-western boundary, before flowing through and forming part of the south-eastern boundary. The Russell River forms a small part of the south-western boundary before it empties into The Huon River.[4]
Road infrastructure
The C619 route (Glen Huon Road) enters from the south-east, crosses to the north side of the Huon River and enters the village. Here it turns south-east as North Huon Road and continues to the eastern boundary, where it exits.[3][5]
