Eucalyptus × alpina, commonly known as Grampians gum, is a small tree that is endemic to the Grampians in Victoria, Australia.

It is thought to be a hybrid combination of either:

  • Eucalyptus baxteri × E. serraensis or E. verrucata or
  • Eucalyptus serraensis × E. verrucata
  • The taxon was formally described by botanist John Lindley and published in 1838 in Thomas Mitchell's Three Expeditions into the interior of Eastern Australia based on plant material collected during his 1836 expedition.
