The Big River is a perennial river of the Snowy River catchment, located in the East Gippsland region of the Australian state of Victoria.

The river descends 101 metres (331 ft) over its 10-kilometre (6.2 mi) course.
The catchment area of the river is administered by the East Gippsland Catchment Management Authority.
