Welcome to the Gariwerd Motel

A pleasant, friendly, and environmentally focussed motel in a fantastic location,
just 700m from the centre of beautiful Halls Gap, 
surrounded by mountains, and animals 
that love to come and visit you. 
While most people know the mountain range as the Grampians. Aboriginal people have always known this place as Gariwerd.
​We acknowledge and respect the traditional custodians whose lands we are fortunate to live and work on,
and we pay our respects to all Elders past and present.
