The Grampians National Park is one of Victoria’s most popular holiday destinations. Renowned for its breathtaking rocky views, rich Aboriginal culture, European heritage and stunning spring wildflower displays, there is plenty to see and do in this rugged ancient landscape. Declared in 1984, the 170,000 hectare National park is home to a rich diversity of plants and animals, many of which are endemic to the park.
Hosting over 1 million visitors each year, popular activities include bushwalking, camping, picnicking, nature study, rock-climbing, bike riding and fishing. The extensive network of roads makes car touring to surrounding villages another great way to explore.
Since the Mt Lubra fire in January 2006 this ancient landscape has revealed many fascinating features in it’s recovery after fire. Now is the ideal time to visit - to witness both the stunning fire regeneration as well as all of the usual attractions the Grampians National Park is renowned for. |
 
ROCKCLIMBING:
A combination of dependable rock, reliable weather and an extraordinary array of cliffs, pinnacles and bluffs has made Mt Arapiles the most popular climbing and abseiling destination in Australia.
The mountain boasts more than 2000 designated climbs, ranging from easy ascents for beginners all the way up to level 30 climbs, the most extreme ascents.
The Grampians are graced with hundreds of exciting climbs, especially on the rugged cliff faces of Mt Stapylton, at the park's northern end, and at Mt Rosea, just south of Halls Gap. Local adventure companies offer a variety of climbing and abseiling courses designed to take you to new heights.
OFF-ROAD: A labyrinth of 4WD roads and access tracks criss-cross the Grampians and all other national and state parks of the region. To give you an idea of just how extensive this network is, the Little Desert National Park alone has more than 600km of tracks. Always observe the regulations and be conscious of the sensitive ecosystems that surround you.
HORSE RIDING: Set your feet in the stirrups and canter amid some of the most magnificent
views you'll ever experience on horseback. An especially enjoyable place to saddle up is in the Wartook Valley area where bridle paths near the Grampian National Park thread through sweeping countryside with the ever-present backdrop of the Northern Grampians' sunlight escarpments. Ambling along these picturesque trails is a wonderful release from everyday cares, and ample space to think.
GOLF: For fans of the small white ball, the Grampians Region will have you spoilt
for choice with a plethora of great courses located throughout the area. The Horsham course is parred at 71 and offers players a challenge that is unsurpassed outside Melbourne.
