BE PREPARED ICE & SNOW, ON TOP OF MOUNT WILLIAM IN THE GRAMPIANS NATIONAL PARK
Mount William
The tallest mountain of the Grampians National Park. A little over twenty kilometres drive from Halls Gap.
Mount William may be reached along the Halls Gap to Dunkeld road named Grampians Road. Drive from Halls Gap and pass Lake Bellfield.
Mount William is the highest point within the Grampians National Park. Three transmission towers are located at the summit of Mount William. Often in winter the towers are coated in ice or snow. A very steep sealed service road continues to the summit from the carpark. This road may be walked but is out of bounds for non parks vehicle traffic. The Mount William carpark is about eight km from the Grampians Road turnoff. All sealed road and scenic views. The drive is ok for those that don't like heights.
Mount William Walk
Once at the carpark people can proceed on foot to the summit by following a very steep sealed service road just short of two km to the summit from the carpark. Usually the walk is very cold in winter and hot in summer. No roadside shade is available walking to the summit. The summit walk is open year round. Views are to the plains of Western Victoria and to the nearby Major Mitchell Plateau which can be hiked taking many hours and planning.
