Mt Jagungal
Fri 26th Jan 2024
Walk, Alpine, Back-pack
Total distance is about 45 km, ascent 1100m.
We will do a loop walk (anti-clockwise) if the river level allows us to cross:
Day 1: 12.2km on the Round Mountain Fire Trail to Derschkos Hut, camp at Derschkos Hut
Day 2: 2.1km from Derschkos Hut to the junction, leave our packs for the climb of Mt Jagungal, (3 km each way, 400m ascent to the summit at 2061m). Collect our packs and walk about 7km to O'Keefes Hub, where we will camp overnight.
Day 3: 16km on Grey Mare Trail keep Northwest, cross the Tumut River (someone described the descent to the Tumut River is reminiscent of Scottish highland walks), heading west passing Round Mountain Hut then turn north towards our car pack.
Drive from Canberra to Round Mountain Trail – 240km 3 hours (via Cooma). We leave Canberra early morning at 7am.
