Mt Jagungal is a mountain within the Jagungal Wilderness Area of the Kosciuszko National Park in New South Wales, Australia. At 2061 metres AHD, Mt Jagungal surpasses any elevation except for peaks in the Main Range and Gungartan (which is directly adjacent). Because it stands alone in an extensive plain Mount Jagungal is visible for many kilometres in all directions. It is a difficult mountain to climb, and there is an excellent view from the top in all directions.
The Jagungal Wilderness Area is a large wilderness region north of the Main Range. Within this area there is some excellent alpine walking in summer and cross-country skiing in winter. As about 70% of the region is open grassland, it is possible to walk almost anywhere.
