Hike Overview



Track Grade


Grade 5 (Difficult) - Walks for the Most Experienced: Grade 5 represents the most challenging walking tracks on the AWTGS. These are only recommended for very experienced and fit walkers with specialised skills, including navigation and emergency first aid. Tracks are likely to be very rough, very steep, and unmarked. Walks may be more than 20 kilometers. These challenging walks demand a high level of fitness and experience to navigate difficult terrain, significant elevation changes, and potentially unformed paths.

1 Review on “Cathedral Range: Southern Circuit Hike (11km)”

Overall rating
  • Relatively easy to follow, went off the track once and just climbed our way back on. Only two sections of the hike are very challenging with tight squeezes. Wouldn’t recommend if you have a fear of heights or claustrophobia if attempting wells cave trail. Best hike I’ve done and first grade 5 hike.
