VH-KDK Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Orbx Content: AU Australia V2. Below is Halls Gap, on the edge of the Grampians in Western Victoria. It is 260 km west of Melbourne. Halls Gap is named after the first settler, Charles Browning Hall. He came to the area in 1841 looking for grazing for his cattle. Today it has a population of 430 and is primarily a tourist town. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stillwater Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Very good shot Martyn, showing the Grampians well in their ruggedness. I have often simulated flying there, as I long to travel there one fine day. Sure we will stay in Halls Gap, and now I even know why that village has this name! A pity that the mesh does not show the famous Balconies, they should be in the background of your picture. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have only stopped at Halls Gap breifly many years ago but I enjoyed the walk I did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can remember flying past there a few years ago in P3D. It also made me think of this great song from the 60s. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
