Mount Sorell is a mountain located in the West Coast region of Tasmania, Australia.

With an elevation of 1,144 metres (3,753 ft) above sea level,[1] the mountain is the most south westerly of all the peaks within the West Coast Range.

[3] The mountain was named in honour of William Sorell (1775 – 4 June 1848), a soldier who served as the third Lieutenant-Governor of Van Diemen's Land.

[4] Its eastern face dominates the Clark River valley, which separates it from Mount Darwin.

[5] Because of its position, its appearance and dominance over the Macquarie Harbour just north east of Sarah Island, it was an early named mountain, and no doubt one which gave a sense of barrier to convicts with dreams of escape.
