The brush-tailed rock wallaby lives in areas with plenty of rocky escarpments, outcrops and cliffs in a range extending from south-east Queensland, along the Great Dividing Range, down through New South Wales and Victoria to the Grampians in western Victoria.
The Brush-tailed rock wallaby is found in Australia's alpine areas. It is a rock wallaby, not a brush wallaby.

There are numerous different species of rock wallaby in Australia. All rock wallabies are found in rocky areas in a range of habitats, including rainforests, wet and dry sclerophyll forests and open bushland across Australia. They are adapted to steep and rocky habitats as their main form of defence against predators. Many species of rock wallaby can be found among rocky outcrops in the semi-arid country in Australia. They are found among open rocky habitats ranging from sandstones, limestones and conglomerates in the ranges, as long as there is some vegetation available for their food.
Wallabies are native to Australia, where they are found in all of the states, including the island state of Tasmania. This means they are found in the cool-temperate and warm-temperate zones, as well as sub-tropical and tropical zones. Wallabies are grouped according to the habitat in which they live, so there are swamp wallabies, brush wallabies, and rock wallabies. Swamp wallabies inhabit fairly flat bushland areas which are reasonably open, unlike the brush wallaby which prefers more closed forest, with denser undergrowth. Rock wallabies are especially suited to rocky hillsides and mountainsides, including open rock faces. All of these habitats are found in a variety of Australia's climate zones.
Bottlebrush are found in bushland and mountain habitats across the eastern states of Australia. There are two varieties found in southwestern Australia, but the majority are found in the eastern half.
