Mount Owen is a mountain directly east of the town of Queenstown on the West Coast Range in Western Tasmania, Australia.

With an elevation of 1,146 metres (3,760 ft) above sea level,[1] like most of the mountains in the West Coast Range, it was named by the geologist Charles Gould after Richard Owen.

In the early days of settlement, fires started on the slopes destroyed housing in Queenstown[4] and threatened the North Mount Lyell Railway.

The northern slopes, clearly visible from the Lyell Highway passing through the Linda Valley, show the extent of degradation due to fire, smelter fumes and heavy rainfall.

It has small glacial lakes on its upper eastern slope, indicating the extent of glaciation in the King River valley.
