Chiltern-Mt Pilot National Park

Chiltern-Mt Pilot National Park is a 21,650-hectare protected area in north-east Victoria between Chiltern and Beechworth in the Shire of Indigo. Established to conserve threatened box-ironbark forest and historic gold-mining landscapes, it is renowned for diverse birdlife including the regent honeyeater, granite peaks such as Mt Pilot, Aboriginal rock art at Yeddonba, seasonal wildflower displays and well-preserved relics of the 1850s gold rush.

Visitors can expect open box-ironbark woodlands, granite outcrops and rolling hills with a network of walking tracks and vehicle tracks. The park contains historic gold-mining relics including shafts, puddlers and alluvial workings, the Yeddonba Aboriginal cultural site with rock art, Woolshed Falls, lookouts from Mt Pilot, picnic areas and seasonal wildflower and birdwatching opportunities. The landscape is natural and largely undeveloped with information shelters and interpretive signs.
