Information

Deans Track to the summit of taytitikithika (Drys Bluff) commences from Oura Oura and passes into the Tasmanian World Heritage Area after a short distance.
Please be warned, walking to the summit of the Bluff is a serious undertaking and recommended for experienced bushwalkers/hikers only. The seven-hour return walk to reach the summit requires constant uphill climbing, some rocky, exposed climbs and leads into exposed alpine areas where weather conditions can change rapidly. Do not attempt to climb the Bluff without adequate experience, fitness and preparation.
