The brush-tailed rock-wallaby inhabits rocky slopes adjoining vegetation. It has a brown back, paler belly and long tail ending in a dark, bushy brush. The tail helps balance during movement over rocks, and dense fur also covers its base.

It uses ledges, caves and crevices that offer shelter immediately beside feeding areas. Small colonies with social relationships may form. Besides grass it eats leaves and other available plant parts.
