About

This grade 5 hike is extremely difficult and is suitable for very experienced bushwalkers only. It climbs 550 metres north from Sugarloaf Saddle Day Visitor Area to Sugarloaf Peak, the highest point on the range and is a challenging approach. The route involves short sections of free climbing, up near-vertical rock faces, which is not recommended for small children.

Avoid this track if you are uncomfortable in high open and exposed places and do not attempt in wet or windy conditions. Carrying backpacks is not recommended, as the track involves squeezing through the very narrow passage of Wells Cave and is recommended as an ascent route only. Descend via the steep rock face of the 650m Canyon Track.

This is a great walk that is really fun. DO NOT ATTEMPT if you don’t have any climbing experience/are not physically fit. My partner and I really enjoy scrambles and go to the climbing gym often, but there are parts of this scramble that nearly had us turning around (going back downhill would have been really difficult!). Particularly the section at the very end (picture included). There is a lot of potential to injure yourself. That being said, we had a lot of fun, and we laughed about the scary parts afterwards.
