Mount Zero, also known as Mura Mura in the Jardwadjali language is the northernmost mountain of the Grampian range.^[2] Its prominent conical shape is visible from the Western Highway south of Horsham. Scottish explorer Sir Thomas Livingstone Mitchell named and then described the mountain as "Mount Zero, a name I applied to a remarkable cone at the western extremity of the chain of mountains."^[1] While the peak is inside the National Park, the Mount Zero Olive Farm runs along its northern approaches.^[3] Scrub covers the sandstone slopes, with a track running up to the summit from the Mt Zero Picnic Area.^[4]

Mount Zero will be the terminus of a new 144-km walking track starting at Dunkeld in the south.^[5]
