In-Depth Information
In summer, be prepared for huts that are full, a constant flow of foot traffic, and a small
gathering of people admiring the views at Harris Saddle. You must put up with the large
number of people because the mountain scenery is truly exceptional.
The considerable amount of climbing is tempered by the well benched and graded track.
A strong tramper could walk this track in less than three days, but considering all the ex-
pense and hassle of booking the huts, why would you want to?
The track can be hiked in either direction, but most trampers begin on the Glenorchy side
and end at the Divide. The trip can be made into a circuit by returning via either the Green-
stone or Caples Tracks.
