Cathedral Ranges North

A challenging hike; scrambling up, down and across the Cathedral Ranges North section.  This route is not for the faint hearted and has some scrambling sections but don’t worry, our guides are here to support you.

Starting from Cooks Mill, this easy trail wanders downstream adjacent to the river has an enchanted forest feel to it. After a few kilometres we take a sharp left turn, things rapidly change as we start the steep ascent towards Cathedral peak. The hike from now is exposed to the elements so be prepared for a hot climb during summer, or a wet and sometimes slippery winter trek. Experience the exhilaration of negotiating the rocky and windy trail along the razorback with spectacular views (it’s hard not to get distracted). We end the hike walking along big rocky steps to take us back down to the start. If you’re lucky, you may pass a small waterfall on the way back (usually during winter or the wet season).

This is a sensational walk along the challenging and rewarding razorback! You’ll be feeling inspired and proud of your achievements as you make your way home for a well earned rest!
