  • The Cascade Saddle Route is a 17km alpine crossing that connects West Matukituki Valley with the Dart Valley in Mt Aspiring National Park. It is a very challenging and technical climb and numerous deaths have occurred here, so you will need advanced tramping experience to navigate the pass safely. In this video we will take you through the pass and identify key hazards and conditions to prepare for, so you can make it home safely.

    Hiked this one in february 1986. Beautifull weather, no snow at the top of the pass. Took me 7 1/2 hours from Mount Aspiring-hut to the Dart-hut. Great tramping, wish I could still do this. Nice vid, thanks for uploading. Brings back great memories !!

    What a blast from the past, having walked this route in the mid 1970s with little to go on beyond hand drawn maps and route guides. Our party of three aussies met one other couple on our walk into Aspiring Hut from the south (Glenorchy) and climb up to the Bonar Glacier and Colin Todd Hut.

    5:32 was my favorite part. It was breath taking moment with sound from Kea. I think there are lots of nest on cliffs.

    I did this in 2015 with someone I met at Aspiring Hut. It's good to have company to spot you on the way up and with route finding on the way down the Dart through the moraine. I can recommend going down the Rees Valley after that (and I had no choice at the time). Very informative and accurate video. Didn't get to see Mt Aspiring but climbed it a year later!

    Excellent video on this tramp, and stunning videography!
    I really enjoy your videos Mountain Safety Council, and I derive a great deal of understanding and education from them.
    Keep up the great work. 😊

    Sweet kiwi accent! I used this track to ascent Mt.Tyndall and Plunket Dome+Mt.Liverpool. Also my tent and some food inside was fatally damaged by keas when leaving it near Cascade Saddle and going for Mt.Liverpool.

    I'm terrified now, but it looks beautiful.

      Beautiful it is, and terrifying it can be, especially the low-grade rock climbing/scrambling if the weather isn't nice.

    It's like watching a movie trailer that gives away too much plot. Watching this I feel I have been there and done it, without the blisters.

    This route was called "The Cullers Route" after Govt Deer Culler Ian Hagen pioneered it in 1956.

    Are you sure about the name of the campsite?? Cascade creek campsite? Is it DOC?? Can’t find any info about it. Thanks.

    • @NZMountainSafetyCouncil
      @NZMountainSafetyCouncil  5 лет назад +2

      Not on DOC website but it's where the toilet is and is their (DOC's) preference to minimise impact. Hope that helps ^NK
