Hartz Peak 2013

This walk took place on Tuesday 29 of January 2013 on a comfortable but slightly overcast day. A good day for walking.

I hadn't been here for years and has it changed! Day use shelter, walkways, toilet. All the mod cons.




Day shelter, long drop toilet at end of walkway to left.

Mountain view

Boot cleaning station



Looking down towards Huon

Walkway towards our objective







Morning Tea

Getting closer to the climb

Heading towards first steep but short climb to plateau.

Hands & feet required

Looking back, track in is just visable.


We found this little bloke waiting for us at the top


Track over second plateau towards summit.


First plateau


Hartz Lake - glacial

Distant range

Nearing summit






Top of our world




Heading back. Not a bad view.

Hartz Lake

Totem like tree.

Looking back

Flower in small tarn

Cushion plant


Lake Esperance - bit more flash then the last time I was here


Not sure what was said, but Addie's covering his ears!
