Highlights Include:
- Boroka Lookout
- The Grampians Zoo

The majority of the best aspects of The Grampians National Park (Halls Gap) are the lookout points and walking trails. If you're travelling with young ones, The Grampians Zoo is the perfect way to spend your afternoon - you can even feed the gorgeous Meerkats!
