Partial closure

Significant Aboriginal cultural values were rediscovered at Lower Centurion in late 2025, so Parks Victoria has closed access from the area north of and including Damage Done. Climbs south of and including In Plain Sight remain open, and access to Upper Centurion via the south end near Winged Corpse is unchanged. Parks Victoria: rock climbing in Gariwerd

Bushfire season. Parks can close on Extreme or Catastrophic fire danger days, whatever the rock is doing. Check the VicEmergency and park alerts before you go.

About Grampians — Centurion Walls

Centurion Walls is a sport and trad area below the Mt Difficult Range in the northern Grampians (Gariwerd): mostly bolted climbing at Lower Centurion, high first bolts (bring a stick clip), and trad only at Upper Centurion. This part of the park was not burnt in the 2024–25 fires. Much of the rock here is softer than elsewhere in the Grampians, so avoid climbing within 24 hours of rain, and treat any damp holds as breakable.

Region: Grampians
Rock type: Hard sandstone
Aspect: mixed-facing
