This Community Information message is being issued for Grampians (Gariwerd) National Park and the surrounding area.
- The status for this bushfire is now under control.
- Over summer two large bushfires impacted the Grampians (Gariwerd) National Park. These fires have burnt 135,800 ha of park and private land. However, there are still many areas open for you to visit. Please obey park and road closures, and do not enter fire affected areas as fire crews are working in the area and it is not safe.
GPT Halls Gap Trailhead
Following the recent bushfires in Grampians (Gariwerd) National Park, construction has started on a new visitor node to the epic long-distance Grampians Peaks Trail and other nearby trails in the National Park. It features elements of the trail and landscape including boulders, a boardwalk and an example of a tent camping platform and will better connect walkers in the national park to the town.
Grampians Ark Team
This week the ARK team sling loaded 13 cache boxes into Moora Moora Reservoir to support the nearby Brush Tail Rock Wallaby (BTRW) colony recovery works and set up 18 ground feeding stations.
