The King William Range is a mountain range in the South West Wilderness, Tasmania, Australia. It is situated south of the

Derwent Bridge. It is the source of the Gordon River
catchment.

Despite older designations of a single peak,[1] it has three peaks named Mount King William, designated I, II and III.

The mountains that are over 1100m high in the range include:[2]

  • Loddon Bluff (1220m)
  • Mt King William I (1324m)
  • Slatters Peak (1300m)
  • Mt King William II (1363m)
  • Mt Hobhouse (1222m)
  • Wentworth Hills (1244m)

In some mapping of Tasmania it is included in the Central Highlands region, and it is also in proximity to Hydro Tasmania impoundments in the highlands.
