The Liffey River is a river in Northern Tasmania, Australia that flows from the Great Western Tiers to the Meander River near Carrick, and is one of its main tributaries. The Liffey has a modern catchment area of 224 square kilometres which has been modified by human activity, specifically diversion for irrigation. Flow is highly seasonal with the largest average monthly flows from July to September. The flow, and effective catchment area, are affected by irrigation diversion.
