Grampians
Highland range, Scotland
The Grampians are a mountain range in the Scottish Highlands, traditionally marking the boundary between the Highlands and Lowlands.
The name was exported to Australia, where the Grampians are a national park in Victoria known for sandstone peaks and Aboriginal rock art.
In Scottish contexts, the word evokes rugged highland terrain: We hiked through the Grampians.
