Mount Kent is a mountain on East Falkland, Falkland Islands,[1] It is north of Mount Challenger and saw action in the Falklands War during the Battle of Mount Harriet - some of the area still being cleared of Argentine landmines.
Murrell River rises on Mount Challenger to the south, and tributaries run off Mount Kent, Mount Harriet and Two Sisters.
Mount Kent also has an impressive stone run.
