The Mount Buffalo National Park is a national park located in the alpine region of Victoria, Australia. The 31000ha national park is located approximately 350km northeast of Melbourne in the Australian Alps. Within the national park is Mount Buffalo, a moderately tall mountain plateau, with an elevation of 1723m above sea level. On 4 November 1898 an area of 1166ha was reserved around the plateau and Eurobin Falls as Mount Buffalo National Park, making it one of the oldest national parks in Australia. In 1908 a road was opened to the plateau and the park was expanded to 10406ha; and in 1980 to its current size to take in most of the surrounding foothill country. On 7 November 2008, the park was added to the Australian National Heritage List as one of eleven areas constituting the Australian Alps National Parks and Reserves.
