If you want to do relaxing walk up to the pinnacle look out , it’s better start from sundial car park. It’s only 2.1 km to the top. I started at 8:30am, I was only one at car park, so if you like quite walk, better start early in the morning. There are yellow triangle sign for pathways , just follow them up to the top. The view is spectacular. Highly recommend place for hike.

4.5 km hike! Definitely require moderate to good fitness level. All the hard work pays off when you reach pinnacle and see the views. It's breathtaking !!!! Tips: 1. Carry water. 2. Young kids may find it difficult to complete the full distance. 3. It has altitude, which means there is a lot of steps and climbing involved. 4. Wear shoes with good grip and support. Really important!! 5. Look for the yellow triangles on the rocks on the ground for directions. 6. Finally enjoy the journey as much as you look forward to the destination, and when there, sit a while, breathe and enjoy!!! Happy hiking!

An incredible hike which has quickly become one of my favourites! I’ve done it twice now, both times starting from Sundial car park, and both times starting at first light so we could catch the sunrise. I highly recommend making it a sunrise hike if you can. Both times we were the only ones up there. Incredible views along the way and at the top. The hike itself is rocky and can be slippery, but is suitable to most fitness levels. I recommend hiking shoes with good grip. Absolutely love this hike. A must do if you’re in the area 😍

Excellent hike. I am in awe of the great work that has been done to make these places accessible to the general public. Stunning rock formations and views. My only criticism is that the signage could be better. After spending a bit of time exploring the summit, I lost my bearings and took a wrong turn going back down that necessitated a significant amount of backtracking.

Nice short hike from the carpark to the lookout. Beautiful walk the entire way and some gnarly spots probably not the most ideal for little ones. There are plenty of places to stop and have a rest or a picnic. Definitely make sure to bring plenty of water and keep your wits about as you scale the rocky path up to the pinnacle. There is reception for most of this walk unlike some of the other walks in the valleys.

It was really one of the best hikes I’ve ever done. Amazing views 😍 You need to wear proper clothes and shoes. I visited this place in two seasons. In winter, it was cold and rainy so you need a jacket. In summer, it was nice but it was hot when there was no cloud so you need lighter clothes. Don’t forget sun cream, hat, and bottle of water. The way is fine but rocky. It can be slippery. I like yellow arrows painted on the rocks for direction. They’re really helpful as sometimes there was no signal. Highly recommend 👌🏽

The steep upward walk is a bit of a challenge but definitely worth the effort when you get to the Pinnacle. The views are incredible. Take care when heading back down due to the steep incline. Track is pretty well maintained and there is a standout bakery at Halls Gap that has the best award winning pies & pasties as a reward for effort . Most folks should be able to traverse the track and I rate it as 4/5 on a scale of difficulty . The National park is free to access and you’ll see plenty of kangaroos lazing around on the grounds near the start of the track . Take some bottled water with you particularly during the warmer months .

A lovely hike with amazing views along the way. It's not a very long hike but the rocky terrain can be a little challenging (tip: look for yellow arrows on painted on the rocks for direction). The view at the peak was absolutely breath-taking and well-worth the effort. It is recommended to wear shoes with good grip and support.

The easiest way to reach is to use trail starting from Sundial car park. Trail distance from Sundial car park is 2.1 km, it may take 45 minutes to get summit. This trail might be suitable for kids. Other trails to get Pinnacle summit are much more challenging but with more nice views!

The pinnacle lookout was amazing, the hike to the top was a little challenging as we started from the wonderland carpark. I recommend wearing good hiking shoes and bringing some liquids and some snacks it's definitely worth it. We were disappointed that the grand canyon track was closed due to some structural damage. Still worth it, great views and a sense of achievement when you reach the pinnacle.

Perched atop the Wonderland Range, this is one of the best lookouts in the Grampians, with views out over the valley containing Halls Gap and Lake Bellfield, plus some other ranges. Starting at the Wonderland carpark it's a fairly strenuous 1 to 1.5 hour walk to get there, mostly uphill with many steps in places but also a few level sections for some respite. There is also a seat at halfway, called (surprise surprise) the half way seat. The track through bushland sections is easy to follow, however where it crosses open rocky areas it's not so obvious, so follow the markers fixed to rock surfaces at regular intervals, otherwise it's easy to lose the track. En route it also passes through two narrow chasms - the Grand Canyon (near the bottom, just after the track starts) and Silent Street (near the top). When I was there in September 2023 I couldn't walk all the way through the Grand Canyon as the steps at its' upper end were closed for repairs, so I had to take another track which passed around it to the west. Just beyond the lookout are two interesting rock features: the "Fallen Giant", a large slab of rock which has fallen off the cliff face and is now sitting precariously on a ledge, and the "Nerve Test", which if you see it you'll understand why it's called this. Take care if exploring these, as there are no fences on the edge of the cliffs, and I don't recommend taking children there. All in all it may be a fairly tough walk for most people but the views at the top are just reward.

The primary reason for visiting Grampians and if you don’t go you’re missing out! The hike is available for beginner and experienced hikers alike. You can drive up the mountain to a certain point to shorten the hike to 4.2km round trip or start at the bottom at Halls Gap for a 9.6km round trip hike. Parking is pretty hectic especially during long weekends so expect to park along the road like many others. The views at the top are amazing and there are fences to prevent you from falling. My advice is to actually avoid the fenced area as it’s hard to take photos with a crowd. The view you get around the top in less crowded areas is just as good!

Amazing lookout!! We went at sunrise to avoid the crowds. Bring a torch if you're doing this though as the track goes over rocks and the track gets slippery in the winter. Although once you get to the top you won't be disappointed! The views are as you would expect. We bought some packed food and decided to eat at the lookout. Rug up if you go in Winter, it gets cold!

Visited during the winter season. I did not see the perfect view because of foggy weather and also some rain. But I had an amazing hiking experience. Not recommended with small kids. About 2.1km from wonderland car park. It's Not that easy but you will love hiking and rock formations on the way.

Day 1 the pinnacles lookout. A must see,beautiful, breathtaking. I would say Med to hard for some people. I would also suggest tracking poles. We just took our time & enjoyed all the beautiful things to see. Wildlife, flowers & rock formation. 👍

Vom Sundial Car Park aus ist der Aufstieg (2,1km) recht gut machbar. Allerdings sollte man zwingend gute Schuhe benutzen, da es viele rutschige Steine gibt. Der Aufstieg über den Grand Canyon ist aktuell leider gesperrt, es führt aber vom Wonderland Car Park ein 2. Weg hinauf. Insgesamt ist der Aussichtspunkt sehr sehenswert.

Started in the bottom carpark and made our way up, beautiful path, wasn't overly long or hard, the veiw was nothing but spectacular! Enjoyed breakfast on the top, looking over Hallsgap! Felt amazing!

A bit of a hike to the lookout from Wonderland Carpark, about 2.5KM one way. You will pass Grand Canyon and Bridle Veil Falls on the way, and the view up at the lookout is truely amazing.

Takes about an hour to climb up from sundial car park and all worth it for a spectacular view thats just magnificent. Kid friendly but must be supervised closely, decent shoes as can be slippery and tripping hazards. There are yellow triangle markers to help navigate

We hiked via wonderland carpark to the pinnacle lookout , This hike is amazing! The rock formations are incredible! And the lookout breath taking! In parts this hike can be challenging in parts but worth it once you reach the top

A lovely hike with amazing views along the way. It's not a very long hike but the rocky terrain can be a little challenging (tip: look for yellow arrows on painted on the rocks for direction). The view at the peak was absolutely breath-taking and well-worth the effort. It is recommended to wear shoes with good grip and support. Highly recommend it We started from halls gap and took a long way to do the hike it was nearly 12 km for us with return but it was such a amazing experience

A slightly challenging but good hike from Sundial Car Park for average fitness levels. There are some rocky areas to climb up, especially closer to the peak, so wear proper hiking shoes. A walking stick could also be useful for balance. Definitely look out for the yellow arrows as trail markers. We went on a rainy day, so the view at the top was pretty much just fog. But would be a good view for clear skies. The lookout itself can get crowded with people, something to keep in mind.

January 23 Absolutely love this hike. A must do if you’re in the area. The rock formations are incredible and the lookout breath taking! The way is fine but rocky. It can be slippery. I recommend hiking shoes with good grip. Did the hike around 2pm and it was really hot and no shade. Don’t forget sun cream, hat, and bottle of water. I like yellow arrows painted on the rocks for direction. They’re really helpful as sometimes there was no signal.

We started our walk from the wonderland car park. The weather was perfect and not too many people on the hike! We stopped intermittently to enjoy the many scenery options! Reaching the top was so lovely. We enjoyed a snack and watched all the instagramers posing for their perfect shot 🤣

Awesome experience. It's a hard uphill walk, but it's well worth it. A lot of effort has gone into making a walkable path. However! Going down, I followed the yellow markers, only to discover that old markers are still in place 💥 Fortunately I am an experienced hill walker, retraced my path back up and found the correct path down. Will those responsible, please check this out.
