Hanging Rock is a distinctive geological formation in central Victoria, Australia. A former volcano, it lies 718m above sea level on the plain between the two small townships of Newham and Hesket, approximately 80 km north-west of Melbourne and a few kilometres north of Mount Macedon. Hanging Rock is a mamelon, created 6.25 million years ago by stiff magma pouring from a vent and congealing in place.

As Hanging Rock's magma cooled and contracted it split into rough columns. These weathered over time into the many pinnacles that can be seen today.  More info about Hanging Rock and things to do: CLICK HERE
