Pine Mountain

Pine Mountain is a granite summit in Victoria that rises to 1062 meters and features steep eastern faces with multiple creeks and small rock pools. These natural water features create pockets of life throughout the landscape.

The red granite formation developed through geological uplift over millions of years to reach its current height. This ancient process shaped the rock structure you see today.

The mountain sits within Burrowa-Pine Mountain National Park, where visitors may see black wallabies, eastern grey kangaroos, and many bird species. The area functions as a living habitat where wildlife shapes the landscape you walk through.

The main walking trail to the summit is a round-trip route that requires solid fitness and navigation skills. Plan for a full day of hiking and bring proper equipment and map reading abilities.

The area contains over 200 native plant species, including rare specimens like Grevillea jephcottii and Acacia phasmoides. This botanical diversity makes the mountain a refuge for specialized plants found nowhere else nearby.
