Welcome to.. Our favourite hike in Grampians Nat Welcome to.. 

Our favourite hike in Grampians National Park 😍 

📍 Pinnacle Hike | Victoria, Australia
Only 3,5 hours from Melbourne! 

📌 Before we jump in, make sure to save for later! 

This is a 2,5- 3 hour return hike (4,2km). 
Park your car at Wonderland Car Park and start the trail from there.

🥾 Medium to challenging

We started right after sunrise to avoid the crowds and get the best light – and it was the best decision. We had the trail and the lookout almost to ourselves!

Tip: Travel in shoulder-season.
We were there in September and can definitely recommend it!

🛑 You NEED to read this before you go! Honestly? I 🛑 You NEED to read this before you go!
Honestly? I was seconds away from just sitting down in the dirt and don’t hike further! After the last km on this trail, my legs were completely done! 

So we completely underestimated this hike 🙈 The natural infinity pools on the top of this waterfall are dreamy (bring swim clothes) but the end of the trail is way harder than most people expect. 

📍 Fortress Creek Falls Trail | Blue Mountains 

💬 COMMENT „Pool“ and we’ll send you our hiking guide with directions & safety tips. 
But here are the summary: 

📌 Before we jump in, make sure to SAVE this for your own adventure so you don’t get lost! Believe us you’ll NEED these tips! 

What you need to know:
• It’s longer than AllTrails says (we tracked ~9.8 km)
• It’s ranked Grade 5 in Australia
• Very rocky, uneven & technical
• The last kilometer is the hardest (steep downhill, no official trail, technical) 

The view and pools are unreal 🥹
But please don’t take this hike too easy— especially if you’re not used to steep, technical trails! 

Would you do a Grade 5 hike to reach this spot?
