It was the Australia Day weekend and we were on a family break to Halls Gap. We had done a few of the local attractions including McKenzie Falls which was awesome, fast flowing and very picturess.
On the morning we were leaving we decided to have a look at the tallest mountain in the Grampians, Mt William, standing almost 1200mt above see level.
We parked in the car park about 2km from the summit and started our walk. The group included myself, wife Tam, our 2 kids Bethany and Baxter with my sister Rebecca, hubby Brent and their 2 kids Annabelle and Wes.
The first part of the walk was quite strenuous and took a bit out of the kids but they did really well and pushed on great, especially the 2 boys who are 5 and 6 yo.
As we got higher the walk got easier and it took us near on an hour to reach the top with a few rest break and photo opportunities.
As we reached to 2 large towers on top of the mountain we walked around the back to find the summit cairn where we stopped for a break and took in the amazing views of the Grampians and its rugged mountain range. The weather couldn't have been better.
