\"\"<\/a>Following the recent heavy rains and ensuing floods, many of the parks in Victoria have closures in place. Either full closures like the You Yangs or partial closures such as the Grampians.<\/p>\n

In regards to the Grampians, a huge amount of the park took a beating – with landslides and road collapse hitting the top of the list. Some areas, notably in the Northern Grampians have now reopened. These are predominantly concentrated around the Stapylton area. Below is a basic list of open\u00a0 areas at the time of writing. This will be changing regularly as more areas are assessed and those with the least damage can be repaired and re-opened.\u00a0 For regular updates always visit the Parks Victoria website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Brambuk the National Park and Cultural Centre, and the townships of Wartook, Dunkeld and Halls Gap are all open for business.
\nVisitors are advised to take caution at this time due to variable track conditions. Drivers should take additional caution at this time.
\nAll other areas in the Grampians National Park are still closed due to widespread flood damage throughout the park.<\/p>\n
