Operated by Hike & Seek · Halls Gap, Victoria
You step off the coach into a wind that has been carved by rock for millennia. Gum leaves rasp like pages as the group tightens packs and a guide checks everyone's water. The trail to The Pinnacle begins as a gentle climb through banksia and eucalypt, then narrows into a stair-stepped scramble where the sandstone has been cut into ridges and slots. At the rim the cliff face opens: jagged columns and hairline cracks frame a view across Halls Gap and Lake Bellfield. The land feels as if it leans forward, daring you to look farther.

10–12 hours (door-to-door).
