Getting there
|
Either from the end of Mill Rd. walking up the riverbed[3 Hrs]or Kashmir Rd via a ridge track[3 to 4 Hrs].Both ways either involve all or a small portion of river travel so is a fine weather trip only.Could also be reached from Longview Hut via Howletts hut[4 to 5 hours]but this way is above the bushline and is very exposed. |
