Mount Hope

Mount Hope is a small town located on the Flinders Highway along the west coast of Eyre Peninsula in South Australia. Established in 1916, it was once the terminus of a branch of the Eyre Peninsula Railway from Yeelanna until its closure in 1966. The town was surveyed in 1916 and was proposed to be named Mount Woakwine, but no action was taken to call it that. Mount Hope is situated within the federal division of Grey, the state electoral district of Flinders, and the local government area of the District Council of Lower Eyre Peninsula.
