As summer comes to a close and the crisp, golden hue of autumn takes over, Horsham Holiday Park becomes an even more inviting destination. Nestled under the towering peaks of Victoria’s Grampians National Park, Horsham offers the ideal base for exploring the breathtaking landscapes of the Grampians, Mount Arapiles, Little Desert National Park, and the iconic Silo Art Trail.
Whether you’re a nature lover, an adventure seeker, or a family looking for a fun getaway, here’s why March, April, or May are great months to visit Horsham Holiday Park.
Autumn brings cooler temperatures and vibrant colours to the region, making it the perfect time to explore the outdoors. The Grampians National Park is spectacular in autumn, with waterfalls flowing, wildlife active, and hiking trails shaded by golden foliage.
For rock climbers and outdoor enthusiasts, Mount Arapiles is a must-visit. With over 3,000 climbing routes, it’s a world-famous rock-climbing destination. If you prefer something more relaxed, a scenic drive through the Silo Art Trail offers a chance to admire towering murals that celebrate rural Australia’s culture and history.
Autumn is also a fantastic time to explore the Grampians wine region, home to some of the world’s oldest vines and Australia’s finest wines. As the season changes, vineyards come alive with rich hues of orange and red, and ripened grapes are ready for harvest. Good food, wine and fresh, local produce are easy to find in the restaurants and bars around Horsham.
With the summer heat behind us, native wildlife are more active in autumn. You might spot kangaroos, emus, and echidnas in the Grampians, or even see flocks of birds in Little Desert National Park. This is also one of the best times to visit local lakes and rivers for a quiet day of fishing or simply soaking in the serenity of nature.
If you visit in March, don’t miss Wimmera Field Days, one of Australia’s largest agriculture and agribusiness trade shows. This three-day event (4–6 March 2025) features live demonstrations, machinery displays, gourmet food stalls, and entertainment—perfect for families, farmers, and those interested in rural life.
Horsham Holiday Park isn’t just a gateway to incredible attractions—it’s also packed with family-friendly facilities to keep everyone entertained:
✅ Solar-heated swimming pool – Great for an afternoon dip!
✅ Jumping pillow – Perfect for kids to burn off energy.
✅ Mini golf & giant chess – Challenge the whole family to a game!
✅ Playground & Recreation Room – A space to relax and play indoors.
