The club organises walks on a fortnightly basis, usually taking place on weekends and alternating between Saturdays and Sundays. These walks provide members with the chance to explore different areas and landscapes, both within the Grampians region and throughout Victoria. The club has ventured to destinations such as Mt Gambier, Mt Buffalo, Mt Kosciusko, the Otways, St Arnaud, Werribee Gorge, and many more.

In addition to their own walks, the Grampians Bushwalking Club also collaborates with other clubs, allowing members to experience different walking adventures and meet fellow outdoor enthusiasts. The club's Annual Meeting is held in July, while General Meetings take place on the last Tuesday of each month.

As an incorporated club, the Grampians Bushwalking Club has affiliations with the Bushwalking Victoria Walking Clubs Inc. (BWV). This association ensures that all club members are covered by Public Liability and Personal Accident Insurance, as well as Association Liability Insurance.

The club's Statement of Purpose outlines their commitment to promoting outdoor enjoyment and fostering allied outdoor activities. They strive to prioritise safety and environmental responsibility, while also working alongside other organisations to develop, maintain, and protect walking tracks for the benefit of all.

The club's activities include various types of walks, such as day walks within the Grampians and Victoria, base camps involving day walks from a fixed campsite, and overnight hikes where participants carry backpacks and stay out in the wilderness overnight. All activities are graded according to difficulty, ensuring that there are options suitable for individuals of different fitness levels and experience.
