Grampians, Rural region in western Victoria, Australia.

The Grampians encompasses 48,646 square kilometers of land featuring sandstone mountain ranges, national parks, and agricultural zones between Melbourne and the South Australian border.

Explorer Thomas Mitchell designated this area as the Grampians in 1836, naming it after similar mountains in Scotland during his mapping expedition.

The region contains 80 percent of Victoria's Aboriginal rock art sites, with the Djab Wurrung and Jardwadjali people maintaining deep connections to this territory.

Visitors can access the region through Melbourne Airport or Avalon Airport, with rental cars available for the three-hour drive to reach the main attractions.

The Grampians Peaks Trail extends 164 kilometers through the national park, connecting numerous sandstone peaks and offering multi-day hiking opportunities.
