Billimina Rock Art
The Billimina shelter is an impressive rock overhang where Jardwadjali have created fantastic rock art. The rock art features emus, kangaroo and emu tracks, and 55 human stick figures.
This is one of the most significant and interesting aboriginal art shelters in The Grampians National Park, with over 2,500 markings made from red ochre.
The Grampians (Gariwerd) National Park is 260 kilometres west of Melbourne and has fantastic hiking trails, beautiful waterfalls, superb lookouts and a large variety of birds and wildlife.
The Billimina rock art shelter is located in the Southern Grampians near Cavendish.

The Walk - 2 Kilometres - 1 Hour - Moderate
This walk starts at the Buandik picnic area, and you wander along the undulating track beside Billimina Creek and over several bridges.
When you reach a fork in the track, you can take a short detour to see Buandik Falls, a lovely seasonal waterfall that cascades down the rocky cliffs.
Then, head back to the fork in the track and continue to the rock art shelter.
The enclosure has informative signs, so you can learn more about Aboriginal rock art and how it is formed.
