  • Discover the Northern Grampians at it's best, along the Hollow Mountain trail, which is not too far south of the regional centre of Horsham.
    This challenging trail is not super long, but rock scrambling adds to the challenge, which is well worth it for the views at the top, and the historic aboriginal rock art to discover along the way!

      Super glad! Try to pick a day where it hasn't been too wet beforehand, because I reckon it would get a bit slippery on the rocks after the rain! Have fun!

    They found one of oldest geologic volcanic earth plates below the Grampians
    Raised near the Grampians 60s seen my 1st Koala age 16
    Secrete caves up there People never see you can fall trying small opening deep inside .

      We will be spending a lot more time exploring this area once we can get out of Melbourne! I saw Koalas here for the first time when I was a kid too! Camping in Halls Gap now is a lot different to what it was 30 years ago. Will never forget the noise the koalas made! Sounded like demons LOL

    Isn't it the best place ever!!! I haven't been for a few years since moving to NSW and I can't remember all the names of the tracks but there are some of the best hiking I've seen out there❤️✌️I remember the walk along the wall at 4:34 and going through a canyon, also the tracks being very damaged from a bushfire so, yeh I think maybe 6 or more years! I don't know all the rules, but if your flying your drone without a permit, dude, be careful...

    • @theadventuresofzoomandbettie
      @theadventuresofzoomandbettie  3 года назад

      Yep, agree on the drone bit. Yeah we noticed there had been fires through, and Bettie recalled this happening years ago, but couldn't pin point how long ago it was!

    Awesome! Love your videos! My disabled body wouldn’t make it to the spots you go to... loved your references to indigenous art.. I grew up in Darwin and our next door neighbour was the the head field anthropologist for the museum cataloguing all the art in Arnhem Land .. had many elders next door sitting round a campfire tell stories..

    Did you not film the rock art because they request no photography?

    • @theadventuresofzoomandbettie
      @theadventuresofzoomandbettie  3 года назад

      hey there! We didn't see anything asking us not to, but we were erring on the side of trying to be respectful, as we know sometimes having certain things on film is frowned upon by Aboriginal culture.

      Depends what you mean by winter. Just cold id say go for it, but if it's been wet and rainy I'd give it a pass until later. Reckon it would be slippery. Get there when you can though! It's super fun!
