Mount Elephant, Mount Leura, Mount Noorat, Lake Kellambete, Kurweeton Road cones, and Red Rock. There are many more volcanic formations I have yet to film in Victoria. I will edit another video soon. Thanks for watching.

I lived around these a lifetime ago and I regret not paying them enough attention when I had such easy access to them. I even installed the GSM equipment in the base station cabin on Mt Noorat and that view was breath-taking.

Back in the late 1970s, I worked for the Fisheries and Wildlife of Victoria, Snobb Creek Fish Hatchery and was involved in introducing Salmon into Lake Purembeet.

Nice footage, spectacular view's of these craters, we just visited Tower Hill and Warnambool, stopped at Camperdown, went up to Mt leura but didn't see the others, went past Mt elephant but road was closed.

With Mount Elephant, it's only open on a Sunday it's worth the walk up the hill and some magnificent views from the top. And by the way, thank you for your comment

Do you need "permission " to walk on these beauties ? Thank you

@markatmelbournefpv Ай бұрын

They are all on private property, but in saying that there are walking paths on most, but some are a distance away, so they can only admire with a drone from the air 😊

I realise that the prospect of yet another big bang is a quite enthralling one - unfortunately, I live on the slopes of Tower Hill in Koroit and it would rather disturb our peace and quiet without mentioing the discomfort suffered by the birds and extensive Fauna who would be rendered homeless.

We’ve concreted over the one on our farm in case it ever erupts, although we fear the igneous gases and lava will probably just pop up somewhere else as a result.

There is also Mount Schank in SA, it’s much smaller than Mt Gambier. I’ve gone past Mount Elephant a few times and around that area there used to be Neolithic stone circles etc, but the early settlers destroyed them

I don't think it's as widely known as it should be that most of Victoria and into the eastern side of South Australia is the third largest volcanic province in the world. The gold miners were very often digging down through lava flows to get underneath to the ancient river beds containing gold concentrated in the ancient water courses. There's also much more gold buried deep in the ancient rivers underneath volcanics remaining where it was uneconomical to get to it than was ever recovered.
