The National and State parks in the Grampians region are renowned for their rugged mountain ranges, abundant wildlife and spectacular wildflower displays.
The Grampians National Park is the fourth largest national park in Victoria (167,000 hectares) and is renowned for its flora and fauna. Discover over 970 native plant species, 200 species of birds and an abundance of native animals.
The park is made up of four precipitous and spectacular ranges formed millions of years ago when the sandy sediments lifted and tilted to form the distinctive landscape seen today, with steep cliffs one side and relatively gentle slopes on the other.
Nearby parks include the Little Desert National Park, 1,320 square kilometres of wilderness noted for its spectacular spring wildflowers and the elusive Mallee Fowl and Mt Arapiles-Tooan State Park renowned for its dramatic rock formations providing some of the best rock climbing in the world.
