Description

The track to Mt Aicken starts on the same route as the Devil's Punchbowl falls walk, then turns off steeply to the right.

It takes around 5 hours round trip in summer for a normal party, allow 5-8 hours in winter.

The labelled summit of Mt Aicken is at 1858m which requires an out-and-back on a tricky ridge 300m along from the high point of 1863m.

So treat this last part as optional if you're keen for a bit more fun scrambling!
