Grampians area, Victoria

This is the destination description for Grampians area
Articles Mountain Ranges The Grampians are the meeting place of Victoria's western volcanic plains and the forested Great Dividing Range. Here you'll also find the Wonderland Range, featuring Australia's own Grand Canyon, as well as waterfalls, and weird and wonderful rock formations like the Grand Stairway and the Pinnacle. Aboriginal Rock Art The Grampians contain some of the most impressive Aboriginal art in Australia, spread over some 60 separate sites. Most are painted in ochre on rock overhangs which acted both as a shelter and a canvas. Look out for stencilled hand prints, emu and kangaroo tracks, legendary heroes, and other ancient markings. Wine Regions The Grampians region is home to extensive vineyards, fields of golden wheat, rich olive groves and orchards of fruit and berries. No wonder the region produces excellent wines, and superb food including breads, flavoursome honeys and sheep yoghurt! Grampians Gourmet Weekend is held during May in Halls Gap.
