I nearly died climbing Mt Isobel ....lol we began our journey from Waterfall car park which is end of McIntyre Road. You won't find McIntyre Road on Google maps. We first went to Dog waterfall which took us 75 minutes and then to My Isobel. Our journey was all up, up, up and up. After the Dog Waterfall, the track needs repairing so be careful. There is no Toilet facilities or any DOC shelters. The track is all up and at times very steep. From the Dog Waterfall the track has loose stones which I found quite challenging especially coming down. The weather was beautiful and clear sky gave us the much needed view of Hanmer valley and ranges. There is orange markers that will quite you. I had to persevere because of the steep track, However, I made it to the top. The view is surreal and worth the effort. Coming down was good but we had to be careful because one can slide on the loose stones. We made our return to Waterfall car park in 6 hours.

This is an awesome walk with a very rewarding panoramic view from the top! Started at the Clarence Valley carpark and went up some pretty steep sections often on bush until reaching the ridge line. Does need a reasonable level of fitness, good footwear and layers of clothing.

I started the hike to the summit from Clarence Road and needed app. 3 hours 40 minutes return, including a long rest at the summit of about 45 to 60 minutes. the hike itself is at times steep and slippery with rubble but manageable. the views from the top are simply awesome!

Loved this hike! Took us about 2.5hr return. Added bonus of nobody else about! Would recommend a base level medium fitness. There’s loose stone underfoot, up is easier but down is very unstable. Overall would recommend! FYI We parked at the Jacks Pass car park and walked to...
