Tipperary Trail: Daylesford Weekend

Hepburn Springs Tasting Tour: Daylesford Weekend

Nature, Wildlife – Grampians Hiking Tour

Discover the Grampians on a premium small-group day experience designed for travellers 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. The journey continues with a visit to MacKenzie Falls, one of Victoria's most spectacular year-round waterfalls. A scenic walk leads to the base of the falls, where you'll experience the power of the cascading water surrounded by rugged natural beauty. It's one of the Grampians' most iconic attractions and a favourite stop for nature lovers and photographers alike. The experience then takes you to The Balconies, where striking rock formations frame expansive views over the Grampians landscape. Short guided walks 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. **#Real Small Groups:** Maximum 11 Guests **#Pick-up & Drop-off Location:** [Federation Square Bus & Coach Pickup Drop-off Zone](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/9887a0_2d0590703f45405c9231c0fabc314ad5~mv2.jpeg) **#Pick-up & Drop-off Time:** 8:30am-9:00pm **#Activity Level:** Moderate ### #What to Bring * Comfortable walking or hiking shoes * A warm jacket (weather can change) * Hat & sunglasses * Sunscreen * Motion sickness medication if needed ### #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) ### #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 ### #What's Excluded * Lunch or dinner (to allow flexibility for dietary needs and beliefs) * Personal expenses
