Mt. Alfred is a pleasant day walk affording spectacular views of the Dart River Valley.  The track is steep, but three quarters of the climb follows a good zig zag track.  After this, a marked route can be followed as far as the bushline. Above the bushline this track is steep and exposed. This track is not recommended for young children.  The approach is on the Western (Dart) side of the peak - look for small car park area unmarked on the lef hand side of the Glenorchy to Routeburn road. 

NOTE: Permission is required from Earnslaw Station for accessing the upper part of Mt Alfred - once you leave the bushline. Please minimise disturbance to stock.

Time:  4 - 8 hours
Difficulty:  Moderate to Challenging
