The short, scenic hike up Hollow Mountain in the Grampians National Park is absolutely unmissable!

Walk to Hollow Mountain

A sense of adventure settles over you as soon as the formed walking track gives way to increasingly rocky terrain. You soon find yourself following nothing more than painted arrows and tagged trees as you climb higher, scrambling up fallen boulders and edging your way around exposed ledges. 

The higher you get, the more you will find yourself stopping just to take in the incredible views of the surrounding landscape!


While the way up is fairly easy to navigate, when going back down through the bushland towards the car park you may not see the markers as easily - keep a keen eye out for the narrow, worn pathways and markers. Also note that there are several alternate, signposted tracks for rock climbing access which veer off from the main track. 
  • Distance: 2.4 km return
  • Time: 1.5 - 2 hrs
  • Starting point: Mount Hollow carpark
  • Difficulty: Moderate/hard
The Hollow Mountain carpark is also the starting point for the short walk to the Gulgurn Manja Shelter. 

CAVES AND ROCKPOOLS AT HOLLOW MOUNTAIN


You will pass a couple of beautiful caves near the top, and as you follow the painted arrows on the rocks you will soon find yourself around the other side in a rocky field of beautiful seasonal rock pools with spectacular views all around. 

Keep following those arrows to reach the summit - it is definitely worth the effort.
