Walk Details
Starting from Halls Gap, we will follow the Grampians Peaks Trail past Venus Baths and on to Splitters Falls and the Wonderland carpark, where we will stop for a morning tea break.
We then continue to follow the GPT through the Grand Canyon and up past notable landmarks like the Cool Chamber, Bridal Veil Falls and Silent Street to the Pinnacle Lookout, where we will have our lunch break.
Afterwards we will return to Halls Gap via the track that passes below the cliffs of Mackeys Peak – all downhill but over 500 metal and stone steps to negotiate before we return to the cars and then head for the ice cream shop / bakery afterwards.
