Victoria’s multi-day Grampians Peaks Trail covers 164 kilometres of spectacular scenery and challenging hiking from Mt Zero in the North to Dunkeld in the South, traversing three major mountain ranges along the way. Over 13 varied days, the GPT takes in almost the same amount of elevation and descent as it would be to climb Mt Everest. This book is richly illustrated with full-colour photographs and detailed maps for each section. As well as extensive planning notes, there are detailed walk notes for each of the 8 official days walks, tailored for both day walkers and campers, and optional itineraries for 4-9 days, with flexible ‘build your own walk’ options. The book also contains much Information on the local history, environment and wildlife.

Deb Heyes and Julie Mundy have been keen walkers their whole lives, and have been walking together for over 15 years, including a pretty wild and wonderful adventure to Patagonia. This is Julie’s seventh and Deb’s fourth walking guidebook for Woodslane Press, and researching, walking and writing them is both full on and wonderful. They have walked many of the previously existing GPT sections several times over the years but found walking the completed trail to write this guide as pleasurable an experience as ever.
