About 20 km north-west of Denman, in the Goulburn River National Park, is Mount Dangar (670 m above sea level). It was sighted in 1824 by surveyor Henry Dangar who named it Mt Cupola (for its domed shape). It was renamed by explorer Allan Cunningham, who became the first European to climb it the following year. Mount Dangar is a good place for walks, offering exceptional views of the area.
