Description
This eco-lodge is an exciting, multi-award winning, and luxurious accommodation set on 100 acres in the Australian bushland. It is set in the Grampians mountain range, one of Australia's top holiday destinations. It is surrounded on three sides by the National Parks and on the fourth side by the Grampians Golf Course, and is the perfect base to explore the spectacular beauty of the area.Your hosts are happy to take you on a guided walk. The architect designed lodges are built on sustainable principles, and showcase eco-tourism accommodation at its very best. The property is operated on solar power, biodiesel and a worm-based composting system.
This project is part of Ecoteer - the solution to travel and volunteering on a shoestring.
Ecoteer is a unique volunteer opportunities agency - offering a directory of cheap volunteer work opportunities, volunteer jobs abroad and working holidays. Our volunteer opportunities are cheap because we have eliminated the middleman slashing the price to volunteer abroad for gap years, career breaks and working holidays. Ecoteer is leading the way in a new type of volunteer work opportunities abroad and is changing the volunteer and working holiday industry back to what it used to be benefiting both the volunteer and the volunteer project.
We have other opportunities in eco-tourism, conservation, humanitarian aid and teaching in other 50 countries.
