This is for the mountain peak, NOT the Organ pipes.
The peak is around 300 m in elevation and with a relatively well marked route for the majority of its duration, which is short in total. The final section is extremly different and challenging to the vast majority of "normal" hikes.
After the path begins to take on a very steep incline towards the peak it disappears to no visible path. You are then left with, at times, close to vertical rock climbing essentially. If you are not a confident person at selecting your own route and being on all fours a lot, I would advise against trying this climb. A fear of heights would be a huge problem as the sheer drop near the top is scary for even confident people.
Wear proper boots and take proper precautions. And if done so it can be a very enjoyable and short activity. And if you start feeling unsure and nervous during the climb, there is no shame in turning back. The peak will be there...
