We emerge out onto the rocky spine of the Pinnacle, one of today’s visual spectacles. After lunch our days’ walk continues on a more even footing out to Sundial Peak where you can rest and soak up another stunning view.

From here the days’ walking winds up at the Rosea Campground. A short drive later and we have you back in our accommodation where you can freshen yourself up and then join us for pre dinner nibbles followed by a two-course dinner prepared by your guides.

Accommodation

We spend 3 nights in Halls Gap. Our accommodation is either D’Altons Retreat or Grampians Pioneer Cottages.

D’Altons is located within a few minutes walk of the main township at Halls Gap and features modern facilities and amenities, including an outdoor salt water pool (so don’t forget to bring your swimmers after a day’s walking!). We stay in lovely two bedroom log cabins which have been designed with functionality and space in mind. The Cottages are generously spread over our bush site to utilise the magnificent views of the Grampians ranges. The Cottages are constructed of rough sawn hardwood and complement the ambience of the National Park.
Each cottage is fully self-contained and comprises 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, toilet, fully equipped kitchen, lounge, dining area and spacious verandah.

You can choose a single supplement if you would prefer not to share a bedroom, this means you would have one bedroom in the two bedroom cabin and are likely to be sharing the cabin (and bathroom) with one or two other guests.

At Grampians Pioneer Cottages we stay in three and two bedroom cottages, each has shared bathroom facilities for each individual cottage, a living and kitchen area.

Grampians Pioneer Cottages is a natural country retreat where you stay in self-contained accommodation uniquely built from Australian and New Zealand reclaimed timbers, stone, mudbrick, corrugated iron and 100 year old redbricks.

Single Supplement
A single supplement is available on all nights of this trip from an extra $300 subject to availability.

Tour Documentation

Most healthy adult can participate in a Park Trek walking holiday. If you can walk upwards of 15 kilometres or more in a day, carrying a lightweight day pack, you will find our tours totally achievable.
While we typically walk on well forged walking tracks, the quality and degree of difficulty can vary greatly. You may find some tracks rocky and lumpy underfoot, soft and sandy, or muddy and slippery.
Sometimes there is the need to negotiate obstacles such as fallen trees, sections of scree or steep steps.
Ensure you come along with, not only the right footwear, rain gear and clothing, but also the right frame of mind!

What you need to bring

Clothing for the duration of the trip
A comfortable pair of walking shoes (runners or flat-soled shoes will not suffice except as something you can wear after a day’s activity)
Toiletries and any personal medication.
Walking poles with a telescopic arm (if you are comfortable with using these).
Other items relevant to specific trips will be detailed in trip notes sent to you prior to travel.
