12 October
Arrived at Halls Gap in the Grampians National Park, 575km from Adelaide, tired from driving and with a streaming cold :-(
Passed several kangaroos on the way into town - the dusk scenery gave a tantalising glimpse of what the Grampians have to offer!
The lovely people at the YHA gave me my own room - genuine comfort and quiet for just AUD30 a night! This is an ECO hostel - guests are encouraged to save water and recycle wherever possible. It’s a brilliant base for exploring the local hills, and the view from the room balconies (yes, its true, balconies) is one of eucalyptus covered hillsides and dramatic skies, accompanied by flocks of noisy parrots and cockatoos. Kangaroos come into town at dusk - it’s a “close to nature” kind of place.
