THE AUSTRALIAN ALPS
INCLUDE THE HIGH PEAKS OF MT
BOGONG (1986m),
MT COBBERAS (1830m), MT FEATHERTOP (1922m)
AND MT HOTHAM (1868m).
Many of the other mountains are, in fact, plateaux or flat eroded plains bounded by steep cliffs or escarpments.
The formation of the alps started more than 500 million years ago when Australia was joined to Antarctica, India, South America, Africa and New Zealand in the supercontinent Gondwana. However, the shape of the mountains you see today were created only about 10,000 years ago.
