Mount Stapylton and Hollow Mountain Circuit
11.9 km
Circuit
4 h to 6 h 30 min
This walk starts near the Hollow Mountain Carpark on Mount Zero Road, Grampians National Park, looping via the Mount Stapylton Loop Walk. Embark on a challenging hike in the northern Grampians, following the iconic ridgeline between Hollow Mountain and Mt Stapylton, through open forest and over rocky outcrops. You'll need to be able to endure the steepness of Flat Rock (ironically) and the gullies. Signs and track markers guide the way up the rock slope of Flat Rock to a splendid vantage point overlooking a natural amphitheatre. When you get to the top, be prepared to have your breath taken away by the exceptional views of the landscape. Not for the faint-hearted, this steep trek involves water crossings, slippery track surfaces, exposed rock scrambling, a jump across a void, and a short section scrambling up through the hollow mountain caves. This hike is best suited for fit, energetic and experienced walkers. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
