Emergency communication device for remote and isolated areas

Quick activation in emergencies, monitored 24/7 by trained personnel
Personal Locator Beacons Enhance Safety in Remote Grampians Wilderness
Personal Locator Beacons (PLBs) are becoming an essential safety tool for hikers and adventurers exploring remote sections of the Grampians/Gariwerd National Park. With large areas lacking mobile phone coverage, these devices provide a critical lifeline in situations where traditional communication is not available.
Designed for emergency use, PLBs allow users to send a distress signal directly to local emergency services when immediate assistance is required. This makes them particularly valuable for multi-day hikers and those travelling through isolated terrain such as sections of the Grampians Peaks Trail.
However, PLBs depend on a clear line of sight to satellites, meaning signal strength can be reduced in deep valleys, narrow gorges, or dense forest cover. As a result, proper trip planning and awareness of terrain limitations remain essential for safe travel in the region.
PLBs should only be activated in genuine emergencies, as alerts are monitored and responded to by trained rescue authorities. All hired equipment must be returned to the Halls Gap office unless alternative arrangements are made, ensuring devices remain ready for future adventurers.
