हम थक गए थे, क्योंकि यह एक निरंतर चढ़ाई है. लेकिन किसी अन्य दुनिया से कुछ भी नहीं. हम भाग्यशाली थे, क्योंकि जब हम शीर्ष पर पहुंचे तो इसे साफ किया गया था.

हमने सुबह 7 बजे पैदल यात्रा शुरू की और सुबह 10 बजे शीर्ष पर पहुंचे. जब हम क्रिसमस देखोट पर रुक गए, तो हमारे पास पहाड़ों और ग्लेशियर पर एक अच्छा दृश्य था, लेकिन हम पहले से ही देख सकते थे कि पहाड़ जहां ट्रैक जाता है बादल में कवर किया गया है. हमारे पास शीर्ष से एक दृश्य नहीं था, बस हमारे चारों ओर अंधेरा :( दूसरे लोग 9 बजे शीर्ष पर पहुंचे और एक दृश्य भी नहीं था. आज एक दृश्य था जो केवल लोग 4 बजे पैदल यात्रा शुरू करते थे. ग्लेशियर को देखने का समय फ्रेम वास्तव में छोटा है.

The track is open 7/9/20. Its a hard, but gradually rock and tree roots climbing with 2 lookouts. We went on a suposed to be sunny day without clouds, and once we reached the top, it was covered in clouds and we didnt see anything. 2:45 hrs up, 1:15 hrs sitting there waiting, and 2:30 hrs down for us, 2 young, fit people.

We hiked up 10 Minutes after Christmas lookout, the top should be around 1 hour further. In total it took us about 6hours. Beautiful rainforest, especially with the sun, the Glacier is also good to see in between

Amazing track up to a viewpoint to the Franz-Josef glacier. Do it early in the morning because at afternoon the clouds may be in the way. The second lookout (Christmas lookout) is already pretty nice. The walk is a little difficult with a bit of climbing and a rocky way. But really nice in the rainforest

Not closed anymore, did it today :) DOC advised it to me

Super hike, the path is quite pleasant and fun but it slips at times. We did it in 4:30 am being good walkers. The view of the glacier at the top is incredible! Despite the clouds over franz joseph village, we had a great sun up!
