Mount Noorat

Mount Noorat is a dormant volcano, situated on Glenormiston Road north of the township of Noorat, and approximately six kilometres north of Terang, Victoria, Australia.

Mount Noorat is a major volcano of the Newer Volcanics Province of Victoria, with a peak height of 310 metres above sea level and a crater between 160 and 200 metres.

It is characterised by multiple vents, a complex topography, and the deepest scoria enclosed crater in Victoria.

[3] The mount illustrates a transition from maar eruption to scoria cone development, and includes megacryst and xenolith.

[1] The Mount was historically a traditional meeting and trading place for the district's Indigenous peoples, the Kirrae Wuurong, who exchanged stones, spears, skins and other material.
