Picanniny East Carpark - Pickup 7:40 AM

The GPT Express is a scheduled hiking shuttle service that runs the full length of the Grampians Peaks Trail, from Dunkeld to Mount Zero. Its schedule is designed to transport hikers from south to north, allowing you to comfortably walk the trail from north to south. For most hikers, the simplest and most convenient approach is to leave your car at the end of your walk and use the GPT Express to reach the starting point on the first day. This removes any pressure to finish your hike on a strict timeline and ensures your vehicle and any supplies you may need are waiting for you when you complete your journey.

For those walking the Southern Stage, you can book a ticket to start at Jimmy Creek and be picked up at Dunkeld at the end, or leave your car at the finish and ride the shuttle back to your chosen starting point. Walkers completing the full trail have flexible options depending on car location. You can leave your car in Halls Gap and take the Northern Zone shuttle to the trailhead, then return with the Southern Zone ticket at the end. If your car is in Dunkeld, the GPT Express End-to-End ticket provides a single seamless transfer from Dunkeld to Halls Gap, making it easy and stress-free to complete the entire trail.
