The Burrowa-Pine Mountain National Park is a national park in the Hume region of Victoria, Australia. The 18,400-hectare (45,000-acre) [2] national park is situated approximately 315 kilometres (196 mi) northeast of Melbourne and 120 kilometres (75 mi) east of Albury-Wodonga.

The Pine Mountain, one of the largest monoliths in Australia, is located within the park [3] and is believed to be 1.5 times the size of Uluru. [2] The highest peak in the park is Mount Burrowa at an elevation of 1,300 metres (4,300 ft) above sea level. [2]
