With some awesome road trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to experience all that Halls Gap, 40 miles away, has to offer. Explore the area starting with Halls Gap Zoo, Brambuk The National Park & Cultural Centre and Wartook Reservoir. The locals are also likely to point you in the direction of Great Western, 60 miles away. If you only have time for one thing here, let it be Seppelt Great Western. (But we’re also huge fans of Seppelt Winery and Best’s Wines Great Western.)
