Darlot Creek

Darlot Creek, also known as Darlots Creek[1][2] or Darlot's Creek,[3] arises in Lake Condah in south-western Victoria, flows through the wetlands in the Budj Bim heritage areas, past the site of the Lake Condah Mission,[4] and joins the Fitzroy River at the south-eastern corner of the Tyrendarra Nature Conservation Reserve.[5] It lies within the Shire of Glenelg, and is heritage-listed.[3]

Its Gunditjmara/Dhauwurd Wurrung name is Kallara,[6][7][8] although spelt as Killara in some sources (and translated as "always there").[9][10]
