The headwaters of the river rise south of Bonney Downs and then flow in a northerly direction.

The river is bounded by the Chichester Range in the south.

The river periodically floods during the wet season and can cut roads in the area as a result.

The name of the river is an Indigenous Australian word that was first recorded as Ngullagine in the 1880s.
