This is not a sightseeing bus tour. It’s a slow-travel, small-group Max 11 Guests, Grampians experience designed for travelers who want to walk, explore, and connect with nature respectfully. Discover the Grampians on a premium small-group day experience designed for travelers who want more than a standard sightseeing tour. This journey focuses on guided hiking, respectful wildlife observation, and deep connection with nature, delivered at a relaxed and thoughtful pace. Your day begins with a scenic drive into the Grampians, where dramatic mountain ranges, ancient rock formations, and open bushland set the tone for the experience. Our approach is simple: less rushing, more exploring. We visit Booroka Lookout, one of the region’s most impressive viewpoints, offering sweeping panoramic views across the surrounding plains and ranges. Time is given to walk, observe, and appreciate the scale of the landscape rather than rushing through photo stops. Grand Canyon hike in Grampians National Park, starting from Wonderland Carpark and walking through Cool Chamber, Bridal Veil Falls and Silent Street to reach the Pinnacle Lookout. This is a return (two-way) hike, meaning we follow the same scenic route back to Wonderland Carpark, allowing guests to enjoy the dramatic rock formations and views from a different perspective on the way down. The experience continues to The Balconies, where striking rock formations frame expansive views over the Grampians landscape. Short walks 2.2km allow you to fully engage with the scenery while learning about the area’s natural features. We also spend time in Halls Gap, the cultural heart of the Grampians. This is where wildlife is often seen moving freely in its natural habitat. Kangaroos, emus, and native birdlife are commonly observed, always from a safe and respectful distance. No feeding, touching, or forced interaction is ever part of the experience. Throughout the day, your guide prioritizes ethical wildlife observation, environmental respect, and small-group comfort. This tour is ideal for travelers who value sustainability, nature, and meaningful exploration. This is not a rushed itinerary. It is a carefully curated Grampians experience for those who want to walk, observe, and truly connect with one of Victoria’s most remarkable natural regions. ### What to Bring * Comfortable walking or hiking shoes * A warm jacket (weather can change) * Hat & sunglasses * Sunscreen * Motion sickness medication if needed ### What's Included * Small-group transport * Professional local guide * Complimentary drink * Snacks throughout the day * Free one instant printed photo (take-home souvenir) * Carbon offset through tree planting * All listed stops and experiences ### Important * Not suitable for children under 7 years old * Cancellations or rescheduling require 7 days’ written notice * Requests must be emailed to: [info@ch-ex.com.au](mailto:info@ch-ex.com.au)

Every seat offered means another hiker can join the adventure. Less cars, easier logistics, more fun together. Carpooling is a great way to start the day by meet new people, share a few laughs, and arrive at the trail together. Drivers, your contribution makes a huge difference, and passengers, your gratitude keeps it all running smoothly. It’s simple, social and one of the best parts of the Social Hikes Australia experience. 🚗🌿 ------------------------------------------------------- 👉 Carpool Driver information If you’ve got spare seats and don’t mind some company, offering a lift is one of the best ways to kick off the day 🚙💨. It makes the trip more fun, helps out fellow hikers who don’t have a car and is an easy way to make a few friends before we even hit the trail. Plus, fewer cars means less parking stress and a smoother start for everyone. For passengers, it’s the easiest way to get to the trail, meet new people and enjoy the ride together instead of travelling alone. In our Social Hikes Australia community, many people are more than happy to help out those without cars it’s part of what makes these days feel so welcoming and connected. ✨ Best practice: Passengers should try to secure transportation before purchasing a ticket to avoid any last-minute stress. Important Carpooling Note Drivers and passengers should stick with the arrangements they make. We do not recommend swapping drivers or cars after you’ve agreed on a ride. If you do decide to change, please make sure all parties are clearly informed and agree to avoid confusion. If a driver forgets, gets mixed up, or doesn’t pick you up, Social Hikes Australia (and your driver) are not liable for any inconvenience caused. For this reason, it is best to keep things simple with the driver you first arranged with. In the transport chat, drivers will share their preferred pick-up locations often major CBD train stations like Parliament, Richmond, South Yarra, Southern Cross, or North Melbourne. For this hike, the nearest station to the trail is Frankston , though drivers may choose whichever spot is most convenient for them.
