Victorian Wimmera Region

The Wimmera regions stretches from The Grampians National Park in the east to the South Australian border in the west, the Western Highway in the north and the Glenelg Highway in the south. A rural area with endless wheatfields to the horizon.

The most popular destination in the area is Grampians National Park which is a rugged mountain range with many spectacular rock formations.

An area of much unique flora, at its best in spring. No shortage of rivers, streams and lakes. Nearby Mt Arapiles juts abruptly from the ground and is well known to the rock and mountain climbing fraternity.

Serious rock climbing, abseiling, bushwalking, acclaimed scenic lookouts, fishing, canoeing and white water.

Horse riding trails, cellar door visits, friendly fauna and wildflowers, farm stays, lava caves, regional festivals, aboriginal art sites and cultural museum.
