Located in Victoria's north-east, Mt Granya State Park (6,180ha) is characterised by steep, rocky slopes and plateaux giving rise to an open forest of eucalypts and low shrubs. The area was reserved to provide opportunities for recreation and education in a natural setting and to protect and conserve natural ecosystems. The park extends from the Murray River in the north to the Murray Valley Highway in the south.
