Jervois Hut

Free

If you're using a 4WD:

1. Follow the formed 4WD track past Scotties Hut.
2. Cross the Edwards river just down from the Edwards swingbridge
3. Carry on up over Charlies Saddle until the "no vehicles beyond this point".
4. From here you must walk to Jervois Hut. This will take around 2.5 hours. There's no marked route so you'll need to navigate your way to it.

High lift 4WDs recommended only.

Gate codes change every month between October and May. The track is closed during winter.

Stay safe when crossing rivers

If you plan to cross unbridged rivers, know how to cross safely and be prepared for if you cannot cross.

Do not cross if the river is flooded, you cannot find safe entry and exit points or are unsure it’s safe. Turn back or wait for the river to drop. If in doubt, stay out.
