Mount Franklin (Victoria)

Mount Franklin (Djadjawurrung: Willambeparamal) is an extinct volcano about 10 km north of Daylesford and 4.6 km south east of Franklinford in Victoria, Australia. A road spirals round the outside slopes covered with pine trees, into a flat 50 acre caldera, and onto the rim which hosts a fire lookout, parking area and picnic ground.

The flat summit area is now used as a free camping ground. A central lawn area is surrounded by a ring of campsites, with picnic tables and wood fire barbecues. There is space for tents, and to park caravans and RVs. A toilet block and water tank (non-potable) is located close to the entrance.

Being a prominent local landmark within Hepburn Shire, the mountain is included within the boundaries of the Mount Franklin Reserve managed by Parks Victoria.
