Mueller Hut Route
Great track but better for fitter walkers with some experience.
Steep overall. Approx 2000 steps then unformed over rocky ground, some boulders. Views at the top most rewarding. A hard day.

Excellent site surrounded by mountains, large site, plenty of space, great for star gazing at night.
Peaceful, quiet and easy access to creek.
