Mount William (Duwil)
Mount William
The highest peak in Grampians National Park at 1,167 m, with views over the whole range and the western Victorian plains.
Mount William, known to the Aboriginal people as Duwil, has communications facilities on its summit. Private cars can only go as far as the car park below. From there, you walk up a sealed road closed to private vehicles for about 1.8 km (roughly 1.5 hours return). It is steep, but the surface is easy to walk, and it is the quickest way to reach the highest peak. The summit is windy and cold, so bring a jacket even in summer, and expect occasional snow in winter. The Grampians Peaks Trail also passes through here.
