The Grampians National Park - Victoria, Australia |
The Grampians National park is situated in Western Victoria. It is comprised of three main sections separating its walks – North, Central (Wonderland) and South and Western Walks. Each section offers stunning vistas and walks for all levels of fitness. In all the Grampians boasts over 30 different walks, ranging from easy 10 minute strolls for those wanting to just soaking the calming atmosphere to more challenging 5 1/5 hr hikes for the fit and adventurous.
Over the next few months I will be attempting to complete and review each of the walks available in the Grampians, so please be patient and let me know if you are desperate to see reviews for any particular site to be reviewed.
