The Bobo River flows through Wild Cattle Creek State Forest near Coffs Harbour in New South Wales. Access to the river is via the mountain road toward Ulong; at the bend, continue straight onto the dirt road toward Cascade and stop at the third bridge.

The river has been paddled as an overnight pack-raft trip, with inflatable boats carried in alongside camping gear. The character of the river includes at least one significant rapid that paddlers will hear well before reaching it. This rapid is considered a compulsory portage and should not be underestimated. Paddlers should be prepared to scout ahead and carry around this feature.

Given the remote nature of the Wild Cattle Creek State Forest setting, paddlers should be self-sufficient and take precautions against capsizing, including waterproofing all gear thoroughly. The river runs through forested terrain, and the surrounding landscape is the primary draw of the experience.
