Did the East and West peaks in Spring, 2014. Loved the scrambling over to West peak. Total trip was 5hrs return with a half hour lunch break with a group of 5 moderately experienced hikers. The track in was well-worn up until the national park starts. No snakes, easy to navigate and no need for long pants/protection in the track's current state. Scrambling amongst the giant lillies was a highlight, but they're not in flower yet (at the time of writing). Some of the grass trees are magnificent. Going to camp at the top of West peak next time - perfect spot up there! |
