Cotter Hut
Sat 23rd Sep 2023
Who cares if the days are short or long, we can walk at night. A ‘day’ walk. Visit sites (and sights) such as Cotter Gap with views to Split Rock, pass by Coronet Peak (see activity photo), ford Cotter River to Cotter Hut, see where Mt Franklin Rd ends, views from Cotter Hut Road to Black Sallee Flat. The route circles ‘De Salis’ Knobs’ and uses the Australian Alps Walking Track and Cotter Hut Road. Around 37km and 1100vm of ascent. At an old codger’s pace, so up to 15 hours walking. Some of the return would be at night by torchlight.
