the great dividing range got it's name from dividing the east from the west
The name of Australia's longest mountain range is the Great Dividing Range.
The Great Dividing Range is the mountain range that divides eastern Australia. This range stretches over 3,500 kilometers from Victoria to Queensland and influences the climate and geography of the region.
It is the Great Dividing Range, or the Eastern Highlands.
The Great Dividing Range, also known as the Eastern Highlands, is the most substantial mountain range and third longest land-based range in the world, located in Australia. It got its name due to the imaginary line that follows the contours of the highest mountains.
The Great Dividing Range runs down the eastern coast of mainland Australia. It extends from Cape York Peninsula in the north of Queensland to Victoria in the south. The Grampians in western Victoria form the farthest reach of the Great Dividing Range. The range does not extend into South Australia.
The Great Dividing Range of Australia is so callled because it forms a watershed. Rivers on the east side flow from the highlands toward the Pacific Ocean; on the west side they flow toward the central lowlands. In southern New South Wales and Eastern Victoria are the Australian Alps, the continent's tallest mountains. Mount Kosciusko, Australia's highest peak, rises to a height of 7,316 feet (2,230 m.).
Great Dividing RangeThe Great Dividing Range is by no means restricted to New South Wales. It extends from the far north of Queensland to southern Victoria and around to the west, ending at the Grampians mountain range.
There are numerous mountain ranges in Australia's southeast. The main range that extends from the far north right down to the south and into western Victoria is the Great Dividing Range. There are numerous smaller ranges within this range, such as the Snowy Mountains and the Australian Alps, the Dandenongs, and Ramshead Range, just to name a few.
The Great Dividing Range reaches from Cape York Peninsula in Australia's north to the Grampians, in Victoria's west.
Yes. The Great Dividing Range is the name given to the mountain range that extends for 3500 kilometres from the tip of Cape York, right down the eastern seaboard and around to western Victoria. The brush-tailed phascogale is a species that lives right along this range, as well as pockets of northwestern and southwestern Australia.
