Greater Grampians
Just over two-thirds (69%) of the Greater Grampians bioregion is captured within the Glenelg Hopkins region. This is the most intact of all the Glenelg Hopkins bioregions, with 86% of native vegetation species, including 53 rare or endemic species. The distinctive form of the Grampians is the result of folding, faulting and subsequent sandstone erosion.
