Grampians National Park in western Victoria has been closed due to an out of control bush fire. Going to spoil a lot of campers Christmas.

Not a nice place to be when there are fires around.

Cheers

Started at the southern end and is currently racing north towards the populated, popular areas. A lot of people have been heading through town on their way there for the last few days. Now they may have to all leave. Not sure if they are evacuating Halls Gap yet.

Hey all,
I have been on the fire ground for the last 3 days & I can assure you it is a VERY serious fire.
Halls Gap & Bellfield have just been advised to Leave now on the Vic Emergency app.
Please consult the Vic Emergency App & plan your travel accordingly.
Stay safe.
Stu.

Well a lot of our beautiful National Park is still burning.
We have got many resources but the weather is just against us. It's going to be a LONG battle.
