The Grampians Bushwalking Club runs many outdoor activities, mostly on weekends and public/school holidays.

These actives are as follows:

  • Day Walks - within the Grampians and also in Victoria.
  • Base Camp   - day walks from a fixed campsite.
  • Overnight - carrying a backpack and staying out at night.

 

All activities are rated according to their difficulty.

They are graded as follows:

  • Family -  generally suitable for young children and older persons.
  • Easy - generally suitable for family groups, walking on tracks.
  • Medium  - longer walks, some climbing involved.  Walking may not always be on tracks.
  • Hard    -   As for Medium but longer distances, more climbing, creek crossings, etc.
  • Overnight - as for MEDIUM and HARD but with an overnight pack to be carried unless otherwise stated. (2 day walks are overnight walks)

 

All walks are free to members of the Grampians Bushwalking Club, unless otherwise stated. Visitors are welcome. 

Visitors are encouraged to join the club if they intend to walk more than three times annully.

If you wish to know more or participate in an activity, please phone the leader prior to the activity as details may change at short notice.

If less than 4 members attend an activity, then the activity will not be an official club activity.  The walk may be cancelled.

If the day is a DAY OF TOTAL FIRE BAN (in the designated walking area) - there will not be a walk, but check with the leader, as he/she may change the walk location or day.

Each activity has a leader. To attend an activity, phone the leader at least three days before a day walk and a week before an overnight walk (unless otherwise stated). The leader will give you details of the activity, including what to take, where to meet etc. The club usually has a meeting point in Stawell, Ararat or Halls Gap, where a car pool is organised.
