The Dry River is a river in the Northern Territory of Australia.

The headwaters of the river rise under Tinker Hill in the Fitzgerald Range just north of Birrimba Station homestead. The river floes in a north easterly direction moving across the mostly uninhabited plains through Dry River Station and then discharges into the King River, of which it is a tributary, and eventually flows into the Timor Sea.

The only tributary of the Dry River is Forrest Creek.[1]

The river's catchment covers an area of 3,000 square kilometres (1,158 sq mi).[2] The eastern parts of the catchment are bounded by the Sturt Plateau. Upper parts of the river have been described as weakly developed.[3]

Western Creek was once a major tributary of the Dry River but it now flows into Elsey Creek.[3] There are a number of waterholes which are permanent on the black soil plains of the river.[3]
