Description  

Mt Duppa (1143 m) is a peak at the northern end of Bryant Range, in Mt Richmond Forest Park. The track to the summit is short, but steep and rough. 4.2 km return. Lovely trees, interesting rock formations & excellent views from the top. The top is known to be cold & windy, so come prepared. The peak is named after George Duppa (1819–88), one of Nelson’s earliest settlers and discoverer of chromite deposits on Wooded Peak.

Mt Duppa Track is accessed off State Highway 6 in Whangamoa Valley, 5.4 km north of Whangamoa Saddle. We will meet at the Cathedral steps at 8.30am. Limit 10 persons.
