[edit]

The range is named after Mount Royal, one of its prominent peaks.

[edit]

To provide water for theBayswater Power Station, theBarnard River Scheme was constructed in the 1980s so water could be transported over the range into the Hunter River.

[edit]

The Mount Royal range forms the northern rim of the Hunter Region. TheBarrington Tops, an elevated plateau at the headwaters of theBarrington River, are part of the Mount Royal Range. TheWorld Heritage listedBarrington Tops National Park includes this area.
