Mount Tennent

Mount Tennent, Mountain summit in Namadgi National Park, Australia.

Mount Tennent is a mountain summit in Namadgi National Park that reaches 1375 meters in elevation. It stands out as a major peak within the southern reaches of the Australian Capital Territory, commanding views across the highland region.

Allan Cunningham named the peak Mount Currie in 1823, after Captain Mark Currie, who had led the first European expedition nearby that year. The name Mount Tennent comes from John Tennant, a bushranger who had a hideout on the mountain's slopes in 1827.

The mountain is called Tharwa, the same name as the village at its northern foot; the source records this as an Aboriginal name without naming a specific language group. The summit is the end point of the final section of the Australian Alps Walking Track, and Outward Bound uses the slopes as camping grounds for its courses.

The trail to the summit covers about 14 kilometers with an elevation gain of 853 meters, starting from the Namadgi Visitors Centre. The path is clearly marked throughout, making it straightforward for visitors to follow.

The base of the mountain serves as home to Australia's Outward Bound program, which supports conservation work through native tree planting. Walkers may encounter signs of this environmental effort while exploring the area.
