Mount Edwards is a mountain in South East Queensland, Australia. The mountain rises 634 m above sea level and is part of the Moogerah Peaks National Park. It lies within its namesake locality Mount Edwards, approximately 100 km south west of Brisbane approximately 17 km (10.5 mi) from the town of Boonah. The mountain is the closest of the Moogerah Peaks to the Cunningham Highway and is 9 km south of Aratula.

Later renamed in 1828 by Alan Cunningham after Lieutenant George Edwards. The Indigenous name, given by the Yugara people, is Wummun. The summit is accessed by walking track that starts across the Moogerah Dam wall. The 2.7 km walk to the top affords views across Fassifern Valley. Between Mount Edwards and Little Mount Edwards (363 m) to the east, is Reynolds Creek which flows through a steeply sloped gorge.
