Description
Rock shaped like a cowl or hooded figure
Hanging Rock is a rare volcanic formation . One of the best examples of a volcanic plug or mamelon in the world, it has been exposed to considerable weathering and erosion, resulting in a conglomeration of unusual rock formations. Rising 105 metres from the plain and formed six million years ago, Hanging Rock is actually a small steep-sided volcano (mamelon). Rainwater has gradually created unusual rock formations, including the Black Hole of Calcutta and the Cathedral.
The site is locatedbetween the two small townships of near the townships of Woodend and Mount Macedon, Newham and Hesket, approximately 70 km north-west of Melbourne and a few kilometres north of Mount Macedon, Victoria, Australia.
In the middle of the 19th century, the traditional occupants of the place – tribes of the Dja Dja Wurrung, Woi Wurrung and Taun-gurung – were forced from it. They had been its occupants for, potentially, thousands of years and, colonisation notwithstanding, have continued to maintain cultural and spiritual connections with the place
