Mountain Lion (Designated rock-climbing and bouldering area) – Temporary exclusion

Significant Aboriginal cultural values have recently been rediscovered at the Mountain Lion designated rock-climbing and bouldering area.

While Parks Victoria and Gariwerd Traditional Owners determine a longer-term management response, and out of respect for this significant cultural landscape, visitors are requested to not access this area.

The Aboriginal Heritage Act 2006 protects Aboriginal cultural heritage and significant financial penalties apply for harm caused by individuals or corporate bodies.

Grampians Peaks Trail – Helicopter Operations – November 26.11.2024 to 27.11.2024

Helicopter Air-Lift Operations are scheduled along Grampians Peaks Trail (GPT) from Tuesday 26th to Wednesday 27th of November 2024.

Temporary closures of Hike-in campgrounds, walking tracks and roads will be required as staff work to remove toilet pods and transfer trail surfacing materials on the Grampians Peaks Trail.

The transfer of trail surfacing material requires a temporary closure period of 2 hours. This may delay walkers on GPT section C1, specifically between The Pinnacle and Sundial Car Park on Wednesday 27th of November 2024. Otherwise, pod removal operations at Hike-in campgrounds will incur a wait of up to 30 minutes.     

Signage will be installed at trailheads and staff will be on ground to assist with temporary closures. Please follow signage advice and remain clear of closed areas during operations.

The operation will only take place under favourable weather conditions. Should the operation be suspended, contingency days on Thursday the 28th of November and Friday 29th of November are available for works to re-commence when conditions are deemed favourable.
