GRAMPIANs TIPS and info

Traditionally known as Gariwerd, The Grampians is home to the largest concentration of Aboriginal rock art sites in the state. Visit Brambuk - the National Park and Cultural Centre in Halls Gap to learn more about the area's rich Aboriginal culture and history.

Just when you thought The Grampians couldn't get any prettier - if you drive up Mt William in the heart of winter, you may be lucky enough to see the landscape decorated with snow! 

Some days you can find yourself looking down on the clouds from the spectacular Boroka Lookout - a truly remarkable sight. 

The park in the middle of Halls Gap has fantastic undercover barbecue facilities and an excellent playground. This is a great place to stop for lunch while taking in the remarkable views of the surrounding mountain ranges.
