Grampians
If you're seeking an island of perfect calm, set sail for the spectacular Grampians region of Western Victoria.
Relaxation headquarters are Grampians National Park, a lofty mountain zone that rises steeply from the flat expanse of Victoria's west.
Halls Gap, in the Grampians region, is a popular destination for lovers of outdoor activities. These include include rock-climbing, abseiling, mountain biking, cycling fishing, walking/hiking, nature/wildlife and horse riding. We can recommend quite a few luxury accommodation spots in the Grampians Halls Gap area, including Marwood Retreat, The Lodges and Boroka Downs.
Also, if you manage to get down to the Southern Grampians, be sure and check out Aquila Eco Lodges in beautiful Dunkeld. You'll wake up to kangaroos, wallabies, echidnas, koalas, emus and an abundance of bird life on your doorstep. The Eco Lodges are surrounded by National Park and a golf course.
Archaeologists who have dated charcoal from ancient campsites estimate that indigenous Australian Aborigines have lived in the region for over 10,000 years. Join a guided tour and see dramatic rock art that showcases their culture and presence throughout the area.
You’ll find the climate of this area very attractive. The temperature in the summer months can climb quite high, while spring, autumn and winter are mild and the sun is nearly always shining.
If you love jazz, be sure to get along to the jazz-lover's festival, usually run in February. Enjoy a celebration of jazz in the picturesque setting of the Grampians. You can register for the full program or just enjoy casual performances, as you stroll around Halls Gap.
The foodies amongst you should be sure to keep May open in your calender, because the Grampians Gourmet Festival has established itself as a premium event on the Victorian food and wine calendar. The festival showcases the best of the fine produce of this culinary burgeoning area, in a weekend of fun and enjoyment.
