Australia: A Hike in the Grampians

Submitted by Nicole Coryell on the 2018 winter session program in Australia sponsored by the Department of Health Sciences…

While I know deep down I am not a huge nature-loving person, this past week, my group and I went on an excursion to the Grampians.  The town of Halls Gap is not very big, you can walk the entire thing, but the trails and views there are big and beautiful.  My friends and I hiked up and down these trails, which were kind of difficult in my opinion, but worth it.  This was definitely the first time I went exploring and can call this an actual hike! Maybe after this program, I’ll even look into going on another one.
