Took the scenic route from Bendigo through some beautiful towns such as Maldon, Maryborough, Avoca and Ararat. Maldon especially was very appealing with a very well preserved historic streetscape.
Stayed 3 nights at Old Man Emu Farm Stay at Halls Gap. $15 pn with very few neighbours and on the banks of a small dam. Kangaroos, sheep and emus were constant visitors during our stay.
Spent a couple of days driving and hiking various trails through the Grampians. We visited Boroka lookout, The Balconies, Mckenzies Falls, Lake Bellfield, Halls Gap, Stawell and more. I was mad enough to venture out onto the rock ledge at Boroka lookout for the "signature" Grampians photo. After watching several backpackers dangle their feet over the edge of the "Jaws of Death" rock formation, I even shuffled half way out on that too!
