Bullaces Glen Circuit

Starting from Halls Gap Caravan Park, Halls Gap, this walk takes you on a circuit, visiting Halls Gap Botanical Gardens. Enjoy the views of Stony Creek that are scattered throughout the walk after you are welcomed by small groups of Kangaroos. You can also look out for ancient rock formations, and do not forget to enjoy the lovely waterfall and the view at Bullaces Glen. There can be sections of the walk that can be steep and less shady. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
