The Jagungal Wilderness: Historic Huts, Mount Gungartan & the Kerries (XL/R/W/X)
Sat 12th Apr 2025
Walk, Alpine, Back-pack
A four night, mostly off-track, circuit of the Jagungal Wilderness area in Kosciusko National Park.
The initial part of the trip will pass a number of 19th Century gold mining sites along Diggers Creek on the Snowy Plains, and each evening will be spent at a different historic hut spread among this wonderful and under-visited area of the Great Divide. As part of the walk we'll traverse the scenic Kerries Range, and momentarily duck out of the Wilderness area to climb Mount Gungartan, which at 2068m is Australia's 13th highest mountain, and also its highest mountain outside of the main range of Kosciusko NP.
This trip is for members with the fitness and gear to safely and comfortably tackle a multi-day pack hike in very remote country. The group is small as camp site space is limited. We will pull some long, occasionally very scrubby, days.
The walk will not proceed if the weather is looking severe (heat, rain, wind)
A multi day backpacking or base-camping activity.
