Bellellen Homestead is close to the Grampians National Park which
is a main attraction in the region.
There are many spectacular walks and views, a bushwalker’s
paradise. A visit to the local vineyards is a must. We recommend
the Seppelt
‘Drives’ (underground cellars) Tour and the Best’s
Wines cellar tour at Great Western. Also worth visiting is the Brambuk Aboriginal
Cultural Centre in Halls Gap and the many other attractions
like the Halls Gap Wildlife Park, Grampians Lavender Patch and Jimmy’s
Creek Pottery at Bellfield. If you enjoy adventure-type activities
there are a host of businesses that conduct rockclimbing, abseiling,
horseriding and the like.
The native wildlife at Bellellen includes Possums, Kangaroos and
Echidnas. The variety of birdlife varies with Blue Wrens, Finches,
Grass Parrots, Corellas, Rosellas, New Holland Honeyeaters, Doves,
Willie Wagtails and Tawny Frogmouth Owls often sighted.
