The Kwatkwat were an indigenous Australian tribe of the State of Victoria, though some scholars consider them part of the broader Yorta Yorta/Pangerang macrogroup.

Country

According to Norman Tindale, the Kwatkwat's tribal territories cover roughly 1,800 square miles (4,700 km2), running along the southern bank of the Murray River, in a stretch of land that ran from just above the Goulburn River junction southwards around Indigo Creek at Barnawartha. The strip included the junction of the King and Ovens rivers.
