Alerts for Cameron Hut
Challenging navigation on the track to Cameron Hut
Be aware that treefall, excess vegetation and a lack of visible markings are making this track challenging to navigate - especially the section between Kuripapango Hill and Cameron Hut, roughly 50 minutes before the hut, as you head downhill. Allow extra time, and if you are not confident navigating off the track we recommend avoiding this area at this time. First published on 21 May 2026. Last reviewed on 6 October 2026.
