Itinerary description
Epic day trip through Oteake. The cloud rolled in so we did not go to the summitof Mt Kyeburn but I suspect it would be a short(but steep) walk from the track to the summit which is over 1600m high.
Super steep in parts but amazing views. Rocky sections, river crossings, huts, heaps of camping spots. mountain top views - a great place to visit. Patchy cell coverage on the higher sections.
Do not go on anything less than all-terrain tyres, and take some air out of them to make your trip more comfortable! Finish off the day with a beer at the Dansey’s Pass pub.

How important is a snorkel for this onw
Not required. The deepest crossing was up to the bottom of the doors on a Prado. The whole place closes in winter too
