what is the highest peak
Huge shoutout to zi8gzag for working on this even though he was on vacation! 🐐youtube.com/@zi8gzag
Thank you so much for watching as always, I hope you enjoyed the video
r u sure there are no mountains in AAT...aust antarctic territory..??!!!
ps..great vid...watching from one of the highest places in sydney nsw...haha
I can highly recommend Mt. Bartle Frere. Be sure to spend some time on the Russel River, either white water rafting or the river walks. I went kayaking with a rafting tour. The water is so pure you will never experience anything like it. After a day in & on the river I never felt so clean in my life.
Australian Antarctic Territory highest peaks are Mt McClintock in the eastern sector at 3,490 metres and Mt Menzies in the western sector at 3,355 metres.
Fun fact about your observation at 7:23, Geologists have actually proven that Tasmania and Arizona were actually connected about 1.1 billion years ago on the ancient continent of Rodinia. Some of the rocks found within the grand canyon are almost identical to those in Tasmania... Bro literally geoguesses so much that now he can geoguess geologic history!
Oh wow that's fascinating! Thought I was just making a silly comparison but I guess it wasn't too stupid after all haha. Really cool!
that is genuinely amazing, wow.
Almost? Shouldn't they be the same if they were connected?
It was also connected to Nova Scotia and northern Scotland.
This little island has travelled quite a lot!
Lovely segment on Mt Ossa. I haven't climbed it though.
Actually Australia was connected to India and Antartica, in the supercontinent Gondwandaland. Please be factual.
Fun Fact ...the highest point in NSW is leaving Sydney 😂😂😂
So what you're saying is, the best view of Sydney is the one in the mirror when you're leaving. 🙂
I mean you're not entirely wrong. The view out of a plane window when taking off from the airport and circling back around the city is pretty magnificent. Only topped by the sight of our glorious harbour coming into view when you fly back home!
For me leaving that shithole Melbourne. Most overrated city in the world.
The rack gets better the further away from Sydney you are
As a sydneysider this is real as fuck.
I have been to the top of Mt Kosciusko in mid summer. The alpine meadows are extraordinarily beautiful. There were patches of snow in the places that get no sun, including the snow melt that feeds the headwaters of the Snowy River. The light is extraordinary. Australia is famous for its cobalt blue skies due to a combination of clean air and the vapors from Eucalyptus trees that causes incredible blues to be seen in the surrounding mountains. It gets dismissed as not being hugely high, but the Australian Alps have a unique beauty that is well worth experiencing.
It should be noted that Kosiusko was a war hero during the American Revolution, as well as a war hero in Poland, Belarus. and Lithuania. While the mountain is named after the shape of a monument, that monument was honoring Kosciusko, the man and war hero. He fortified West Point, where his stone walls still survive, and there is a statue of him there as well as statues of him in many American cities, including a large equestrian one in Chicago. The US has a county, a city, a suburb, an island, and many streets named after him, but not a mountain.
I should also point out that the tallest mountain in Queensland has several extraordinary facts about it. For a start it rises very steeply from sea level, so of all the Australian mountains it is the one that gives the greatest impression of height.
Secondly, it is named after Sir Henry Bartle Frere. He is less well known these days, but as a colonial Governor in India he became popular for defending the use of Indian languages, establishing the Indian postal service, and founding colleges of tertiary education.
In Africa he was instrumental in ending the slave trade. The phrase "gun boat diplomacy" originates from his strong arm tactics in forcing the Sultan of Zanzibar to outlaw the slave trade and forbid the export of slaves under the guise of "negotiating a treaty" while British gun boats stood off the harbor with the implied threat to bombard the harbor and city, and Sultan's palace. The Sultan of Zanzibar was the largest exporter of slaves at the time, and despite the fixation by many on the American slave industry, most of the slaves were being exported to the Middle East.
He was instrumental in unifying South Africa, but his policies eventually lead to the Boer War. Despite that, he was immensely popular throughout the British Empire, and while he never came to Australia, he was much admired by Australians. I like that the mountain is named after the guy who stamped out the slave trade because that is what he was most famous for. His name was given to such a significant mountain, partly because it recognized his important role in colonial service, but also because the mountain is tropical, has incredible rainfall, covered in rainforest, and therefore is much like mountains in India that he loved.
It should be noted that while it is not particularly significant for spiders in my experience, the greatest danger there are black snakes. The foothills of the mountain are also home to the Hercules Moth which has a confirmed width of 280mm (11 inches) and the largest wings of any insect with an area of over 300 sq cm (over 46 sq inches) There was a female captured in 1948 by the postmaster in Innisfail, that had a wing span of 360mm 14 ½ inches but because it was a postmaster and reported in newspapers and not a scientist doing the measuring, reporting in a scientific jopurnal, this is considered "unconfirmed." If confirmed it would have made the Hercules the largest moth in the world because the only other contender, the Atlas Moth of South East Asia only grows to 300mm (12 inches).
you should be worried about browns not blacks
@@wnnn2268 And there are taipans, and death adders, etc, as well as carpet snakes. However, I grew up in that area, and red belly black snakes are the ones that are very common there. The more dangerous snakes become common once you get into the drier country west of Ravenshoe and Herberton. But in the rainforest mountain terrain, black snakes are everywhere and are extremely common.
Fascinating information there!
Thank you for taking the time to write that.
I too love the Southern Alps in summer. It is my magic place where I feel most at peace in this part of the world. Just inside the National Park on the road from Jindabyne lies a beautiful little camping park with cabins where wombats and roos keep one company. From there it’s a short drive up to Charlotte’S Pass and the track to Kosciusko with stunning vistas over the Snowy River.
I will return soon, but now I’m equally inspired to visit Mount Frere and equally Zanzibar thanks to your information.
The word you are after regarding Mt Bartle Frere’s very high appearance is “prominence”. This can be scientifically calculated and Wikipedia lists the prominences of many mountains around the world to give a good indication of what mountains are more visually impressive than others.
I've climbed all the great peaks of Sydney: Mt Colah, Mt Kuring-gai, Mt Annan, Mt Lewis, Mt Pritchard, Mt Vernon and Mt Druitt.
Pritchard and Druitt are notoriously ferocious. I envy your bravery mate!
LOL good one
I'm not so ambitious, happy with Rooty Hill
@@Fl00fN00dle Mt. Druitt stop that,too funny
Lots of ice at the summit of Mt Druitt
The highest point in Australia is Nimben.
Real
Haha..Nimbin
@@slipperyjoines6629 you get the point. Lol
@@doscwolny2221 Nimbin,where I never fail to get accosted,do I want to buy or sell ? Nuh, I just wanna visit . Byeeee. Huge experiment, is Nimbin
It's methed up
I will add for WA that Bluff Knoll is a much more common climb for the state's locals, at over 1000m and accessible in the south-west instead of the arid northern interior.
Apparently it occasionally gets snow.
@@Andrew-df1dr it regualrly does, maybe one morning a year
Let's keep it a secret.
Really nice video! I now propose a new "highest bathrooms" series
I don't know the answer to that off the top of my head, but the world's highest subway opened just two years ago in Quito, Ecuador, which is about the elevation of Mawson Peak. Think about it, you climb down stairs to catch a train, and you're at the elevation of Australia's highest peak.
In comparison to the cities highest mountain too
of Cameroon?
I've gone to that one
I've used the toilet at Everest basecamp in Tibet. (5,400 metres.) 🤣🤮💩
Of course it wouldnt be a video about australia without spiders being mentioned
I mean, Australia's wildlife in general has quite the reputation. Ask for a list of deadly animals there, you get buried under a pile of books. You ask for a list of _safe_ animals there, you get a scrap of paper that says "some of the sheep".
True, but what about our snakes?
And it wouldn’t be a video without something or somewhere described as unbelievable…
I am glad you included the volcano on Heard Island. A lot of Australians don’t realise there is a higher peak than Kosiosco on Aust territory. The highest peak on the section of Antartica claimed by Australia (unnamed) is even higher still.
It is so embarrassing that an Australian cannot even spell our highest mainland peak, Mount Kosciuszko.
@@TH-camr-k2p Yes, I deliberately misspelt the name to see if any pretentious pedants would be triggered.
I have hiked to the top of Kosciuszko (NSW), but hiking to the top of Mt Bartle Frere (Qld) is much more difficult by comparison. The dense rainforest, steep gradient and high humidity of Bartle Frere makes for a much more challenging hike.
Thanks for producing this video!
Nobody actually ‘hikes’ to the top of Mt Kosciuszko as it’s a pleasant stroll from the Eagles Nest cafe and lookout. I was quite proud of my first ever walk to the top of the mountain until upon arriving there where I found that a lady had pushed a perambulator with infant to the top ahead of me…that’s a pram or a baby stroller to those who weren’t sure what I was talking about.
@@mikevale3620 lol i remember my first time at the top, short of breath and there was an old guy with a walking frame! Its certainly not hard, but its not easy either.
Don't forget the high leech count....
Announcing the park is permanently closing on April 1st was not the best move. Some people must have shown up the next day.
Great video CG! The highest peak in any Australian territory is actually Mt McClintock, in the Australian Antarctic Territory, at 3490m.
(Australia wasn't large or empty enough, so we decided to claim 1/3 of Antarctica 😂)
Yes, it definitely should have been in the video.
All of the Antarctic claims (including Australia's) are barely recognized by any other countries and aren't really legitimate
The problem with antarctic territory is the USA definitely doesn't recognise the claims, and neither do many other countries outside the ones that have a claim.
The Antarctic Claims date from before World War 2 and also pre date the current Antarctic Treaty that governs the use of Antarctica today. However the Antarctic Treaty expires in 2050 and if renewed, extended or replaced with a different treaty. The original pre World War 2 claims will apply which would mean the US, China and Russia would need to remove there bases there or negotiate a deal with one or multiples of the countries with land claims in Antarctica
@@ChicagoGeographer come to Antarctica and say that!
It is interesting that you should comment that Mt Ossa looked like the landscape in Arizona. You are probably aware that a recent study indicated that Tasmania was once joined to Arizona, according to research from the University of Tasmania.
Even though it is part of New South Wales, Lord Howe Island was not mentioned. It is a very unique Island and worth a mention. Highest point is Mt Gower 875m and just off the coast is Ball's Pyramid. At 561m it is the world's tallest sea stack.
Love that you added the additional territories! Some really great facts in here, I learned a lot! Great vid as always CG!
That secret guest was the crossover we, to be honest, all expected - But still needed
Mt Zeil is very much still climbable. I did it last year just before the wilderness park closed but we thought it was already closed. The only difference it makes is the access is a little bit harder but the road up to the place is still there and you can do it off the end of the Larapinta which is what me and my Dad did. So no Mt Zeil is still a going matter there was never a track anyway.
Summited Mount Kosciuszko when I was about 13 years old with my scout troop, knowing it was mainland Australia's highest point I was expecting a tough walk, but the footpath all the way to the top actually made it a pretty easy afternoon stroll. It was definitely worth it though, the views from the top are beautiful and it was my first time seeing snow so that was amazing. I'd definitely recommend visiting if you're ever in Australia, even if it quite far from the big cities.
Next video: Highest point in every indonesia kabupatans
And every German landkreis after that.
@@ChicagoGeographer C'mon, there are just 514 of them :)
After that, every US county
You should talk about interesting mountains in Australia, as there are some amazingly shaped but not high peaks in South East Queensland, for example, the Glasshouse Mountains, Mount Barney and Mount Warning etc.
shhhhhhh.. dont tell them. Most have no idea how amazing these peaks are.
As the list progressed, I thought the last external territory was going to be Macquarie Island, but turns out that's politically part of Tasmania, and not superlative in elevation either
The Australian Antarctic Territory was not mentioned, but it has the highest mountain of any Australian territory, and is not part of Tasmania :)
Thank you so much I've been waiting for this video
Wow, lived in Australia all my life and just learnt more about it from a guy from America 😂😂😂😂
Great presentation mate
That was really worth watching!
Glad you enjoyed it :)
We don’t have that many spiders. Well yeah we do, but they won’t eat you like the sharks and crocks
Carnivorous crocks? That's some odd footwear
Mt Gower is Lord Howe's highest mountain at 875 metres. But, the highest recognised mountains in the Australian Antarctic Territory are Mt McClintock in the eastern sector at 3490 metres and Mt Menzies in the western sector at 3355 metres.
I've climbed to the top of Mt Kosciuszko. Pretty easy to do as you can get a chair lift up from the bottom of the mountain. You just have to walk the last few kilometres to the summit. I did it the middle of summer & I was surprised at just how much cooler it was up there. I had a warm top in my backpack as a just in case & pulled it out as soon as I got off the chair lift. Climbed is a bit of a stretch as it was very much just a walk.
Its about 13km return so a nice walk, but most of Australias peaks are just a day walk. It and Mt Bogong are probably the most accessible. Bimberi is a bit of a pain, can't walk it in a day from the ACT side, but from the NSW side its doable. The remote outback ones are hard, because access is hard.
@@JustinWatson23 Definitely can do Bimberi from Corin Dam in one day, just have to wake up early enough.
I always enjoy how well researched your videos are. Only fun fact I noted that you didn't state is that some include Mount Kosciuszko as one of the Seven Summits, although most recognise Puncak Jaya. People often miss that Big Ben is technically the highest point in Aus, nice to see a video giving it its due - even if it's practically impossible to get permission to climb it.
I live next to Bartle Frere, yeah it rains a lot, but the dry season is beautiful, Also Bellenden Kerr is close by and only a couple meters shorter.
Would recommend visiting Jervis Bay, it’s absolutely stunning and you can also visit Hyams Beach-which has the whitest sand in the world. I did Mt Ossa as part of the overland track in Tassie-it’s a side track off the main trail and doable. I left my backpack below and it was raided by Currawongs-they can open zippers, smart birds. I could see them in my bag from the peak too and I was far up and couldn’t do anything-funny to look back on but also something to watch out for.
@@bearants Well there is a sign at Hyams Beach that says it is the whitest beach in the world so people doing to peak can go see, or google it, it is very white. I don’t think the WA peak was that close to a beach or any note. But if they are in that part of WA what beach would you recommend?
NICE!
Part of my bucket list is visiting the highest, lowest, all the compass points and geographical centre of the Aus mainland.
Just got the most northerly to go! Lots of long empty, dusty roads
shouldnt the values be negative?
Haha took me a minute
You're a poo hed
Good joke
That is an approximate symbol (it wiggles) not a negative symbol.
@@valcavanagh9522 "erm ackshually" 🤓 👆
@@valcavanagh9522 brutha he's making the Australia being upside down joke
To get to Mt Ossa, most if not all people who want to go there must do so on the Overland Track. It’s a 6-7 day hike that takes you through the interior of Tasmania. I did it this year and sadly we couldn’t attempt a summit of Mt Ossa due to bad weather conditions. I’ll have to go back for another shot at the peak. However, you also have the chance to visit one of the most popular mountains in Tasmania, Cradle Mountain.
Cool video ❤
Really fun video cg😊
Btw cg I live in Cicero Illinois so I know a lot about Chicago, I think
As a tasmanian who has been close to mt ossa multiple times, such a beautiful area
My dad drove me to the summit of Mt Kosciuszko in his ford anglia. Late 1950s.
Clicked on this video expecting the usual. Really great to find out that Heard Island was actually on here. I have been dreaming of an expedition out there for decades
Fantastic well done I am very impressed great research from a Tasmanian
What about the Australian Antarctic Territory?
Great Video, thanks mate!
Very interesting, but what about the Australian Antarctic Territories? Mt McClintock in the eastern sector at 3490 metres and Mt Menzies in the western sector at 3355 metres.
I enjoyed this, and I learned something new. Mawson's Peak is technically Australia's highest mountain. Next time some talks about Mt Kosciuszko being the highest, I'm going to nerd out on them.
Mountain
I walked the Overland Track in Tasmania in March 2024, but declined to do the side trip up to Mount Ossa since my pack was too heavy for a trek totaling 7 days, and I needed to preserve my strength. Next time I will pack lighter and Mount Ossa will be conquered.
Australia's most striking feature as a continent is its flatness. Its extraordinary, incomparable, next level flatness. As an illustration of how flat Australia is I was once told the story of a Polish mountain climber who "summitted" the top 7 peaks in Australia. In one day. Walking. Slowly. Without so much as a walking pole.
Maybe apocryphal. The detail about him being Polish and the fact Mt Kosciousko is named for a Pole suggest some factual contamination. So probably apocryphal.
I am personally pretty acrophobic and I had no trouble "climbing" mounts Kosciousko & Ossa as well as bagging several other peaks in Tasmania. Rarely has it involved much more than the equivalent of climbing stairs.
great video love the series
South Australia is generally a flat, dry and sparse place but when I climbed Mt Lofty which means drove as it's only accessible by vehicle I was surprised by its height and views! (3rd highest peak in SA) I decided to do the second highest next Mt Bryan which is about 3 hours north in the Clare valley, as opposed to Mt Lofty which was covered in lush green eucalyptus trees and thick bush full of wildlife, Mt Bryan was a barren mountain with rocky outcrops and giant boulders and very little vegetation or trees? It has a winding path to the summit and is quite tiring? Once at the summit its a beautiful 365 degree view but there is no shelter and very little wind breaks so on windy and rainy days you need to get back down quick!
Mt Woodroffe is the highest and final peak I climbed and it's literally the most remote place I've ever been to! It's in the driest, rocky desert landscape you could imagine! In summer it's unbearably hot and there's no water anywhere plus the nearest town is hours and hours away so safety is paramount! Luckily it's a fairly easy climb all things considered? I actually loved the summit and wanted to stay there camping a few days but apparently that's not allowed? The views were 365 but it was all desert of course!. Only try it in winter, take a lot of water, don't tell the park rangers, indigenous people or locals because they will likely refuse you access!.
Good video mate , I am an old Aussie and I don’t think I’ve visited any of those high spots sadly , about the only place with a little bit of height was Ayer’s rock and I climbed it back in the days when it was just a big rock and no one gave a crap about it , it’s now been disallowed for climbing .
Although it was far from being a K2 climb , it was fairly steep and recommended not for people with a bad heart.
Not knowing any better I turned up at lunch time and climbed it in 36 Celsius and without taking any water 😊, a mistake you would only make once😂.
The view from the top was pretty good, they had like a small concrete mound up the top on the centre of the rock and you signed it .
It’s a pity the Aboriginal’s did not open it up to climbing and charge a fee for it to help out the locals .
But that’s the way the cookie crumbles.
Very educational thank you !
8:36 this photo is taken from sullivan’s lookout. The town you see is Mt Beauty, good place to visit, not to grow up in from personal experience.
Could you please do longest rivers of each Australian state next please!
The walk up to Kozzie is pretty much a tourist highway these days with the boardwalks pretty much all the way up from the chairlift to the summit. It's a bit of a shame it's the tallest peak, the view is nice enough but there's so many better peaks along the Main Range and in Vic. I've also done the climb up Bogong, I went up Staircase Spur and down Eskdale Spur. The walk up Bogong feels better because you actually work for it but the views off the Bogong West Peak is better than the main peak. If you're ever out climbing Bogong, I highly recommend trying to get out to Feathertop as well. Probably the most iconic mountain in Victoria, maybe even Australia if you exclude Kozzie
Australia has awesome mountains. The Glasshouse Mountains are my favourite. The aboriginal mythology behind the region is kewl 😎
another banger, another banger by Chicago Geographer
It should be mentioned that Bherwerre Ridge in Jervis Bay is a Defence Site and is not accessible by the public
I'd totally do Russia or Mexico next, although that may not be documented as precisely.
Video about russia would be boring because more than half of the video will be random small hills in the european part. You can find them listed on wikipedia tho
I mean I can find the ones in the USA or Australia listed there as well. Also Australia had a good portion of the video as random small hills in various islands, so...
@@tomscorpion6288 43 subjects of russia have highest points below 400 meters
G'day From North West Queensland.You showed MY Mountain and the town at its base where I was born. I had that Beauty as a view for my entire childhood. I still think of that area as home.
I knew about most of the Eastern states highpoints, but often wondered about Heard Is. Now I know. Many thanks from Melbourne, Australia
I had to laugh. I'd just made a comment on OzCyclones' weather report, describing how I am living on a 'mountain' ridge...the inverted commas are important because we're only around 130 metres (425 feet) above sea level. Then your video popped into my feed again, so I had to watch.
I was thinking the highest point was going to be in Australia's Antarctic Territory. But I guess that's not an official territory of the country.
An airports video for Paris ahead of the Olympics or a largest lakes of Canadian provinces/territories would be a great new video in this format!
Never heard of heard. Great video!
A very cold an desolate place, but the B.O.M. has astation there!
Tasmania has 11 mountains over 5000 feet (1525 metres) and another 46 mountains at least 4000 feet (1220 metres).. Sir Edmund Hillary said of one of the mountains Federation Peak that it's Australia's only true mountain and extremely difficult to climb yet it's only 1224 metres or a little over 4000 feet..Lots of other mountains well over 1000 metres so true to say Tasmania is the most mountainous State..
Shame to hear about Mt Zeil, although I wouldn't say it's impossible to access. You could theoretically still follow a route from the south that remains within the national park. Also its possible the new owners of the wilderness park may allow people to pass through with permission. As for Mount Woodroffe, it's currently impossible to visit, since the APY lands council has banned all tourism until further notice (I couldn't find any reason for this decision beyond the original closure for Covid). Hopefully one day it will reopen it but I'm not hopeful.
Highest point in every Brazilian state next?
I'm currently in the midst of the state 8 challenge with only Woodroffe and Mount Zeil left and I can confirm getting a permit for mount Woodroffe is near impossible. Mount Zeil can be accessed via Glen Helen station with permission of course!
The group that issue the permits are not exactly sitting by a fax machine or laptop checking their emails... the tour group that previously had permission no longer do. It really is a beautiful part of the world. Can't say I'm a fan of the native title/permits system - I'm locked out of most of the country I was born in.
Great presention. Thanks.
You forgot the Australian Antarctic Territory. For those who are curious the highest mountain in the AAT is Vinson Massif at 5140m. Still enjoyed the video though :)
90% of the Australia experience is "there was something big here that eroded a bazillion years ago".
0:40 Mt Chincogan 305m
I was wondering why Heard McDonald island wasn't mentioned. I knew it existed but didn't realise it was higher than Kosciusko
Cool video, thanks
That was cool. Thanks 🙏
Mt Bartle freer is in the subtropical part of Qld
Congratulations on the insanely good pronunciation
I’ve only climbed Koscuiszko. All the other peaks here are really remote!
Missed Macquarie Island
Macquarie Island is part of Tasmania
Nice research
One of very few channels where I don't have to cringe at inaccurate facts about mountains. His research is really good.
that's my mountain 3:59
I'd honestly would like to see one for the entirity of Oceania along with Territories.
My family went to the Snowies in the early 1970s when I was about 8. I remember we drove to the top of Kosciuszko.
People always bag Australia for being FLAT. As a continent, absolutely, we are the flattest continent. Yet as a country, we are about 95th place from 195 countries.
So as a country, Australia is not necessarily flat and there are some respectable peaks, especially in Tasmania.
If you ironed Tasmania it would be the same size as Victoria.
and balls pyramid is Australia's highest mountain below sea level
Damn Australia is FLAT 😂
Glad to see Heard island getting some air time!
Seems that you neglected Australia's claimed Antarctic territory.
Can’t believe Sellicks beach opened this video 😂
Once again I'm saying, you should do Brazilian states. I'm available if you need guests (:
Thank you so much for not saying Australia is just a desert 😂
I climbed Mount Kosciuszko in shorts in winter
💀💀💀
This was fun, but you don't go to Australia to see mountains or high points. New Zealand fits the bill for that.
Jervis bay is not a separate territory from the ACT
What about the Australian Antarctic Territories? Pretty sure there are higher peaks down there.
You didn't cover Australia's claimed Antarctic territory.
Missed Lord Howe Island
As a western Australian (former eastern) we always thought that we could thrive as our own country...
and then the pandemic happened.
The fact that a random island in the middle of absolutely nowhere has a peak several hundred metres higher than the tallest mountain in the entirety of the Australian continent...
Mawson Peak is the highest Australian mountain.
Right here buddy
You forgot Macquarie island and parts of Antarctica
What about Lord Howe Island?
