Nestled in the heart of Halls Gap and surrounded by the spectacular landscape of Gariwerd / the Grampians, Silverband Lodge offers comfortable, well‑designed accommodation for school camps, group stays, retreats and organised gatherings.
Following recent renovations, accommodation at Silverband Lodge has been thoughtfully refreshed to enhance comfort while retaining its practical, group‑friendly design. As part of these updates, king bed options are now available in every room (with prior arrangement), providing greater flexibility and comfort for teachers, group leaders and adult participants.
Set across 47 acres of bushland, Silverband Lodge combines the peace and immersion of a national park setting with the convenience of being just a short stroll from the Halls Gap township. With iconic bushwalks and trails beginning right from the lodge, it’s an ideal base for groups wanting both adventure and ease.
