Mount Hanley

Updated: May 18

Date: March 13, 2024

Location: Moke Lake, Twenty Five Mile Range, Queenstown, Otago, New Zealand

Total Trip Distance: 9.59 mi / 15.43 km

Total Elevation Gain: 4,512 ft / 1,375 m

Trip Duration: 6 hours 15 min

Team: Solo

Field Notes: Take the track around Moke Lake until one reaches the southern end of the lake. Find a sheeps trail that climbs directly up a spur to reach the top of Williamsons Spur at roughly 1300 meters. From here, follow the spur until it joins the east ridge of Mount Hanley. Climb up and over Point 1572 and scramble up to the summit of Mount Hanley. There is some moderate exposure to reach the summit. Moke Lake Campsite is an incredible place to spend a night.

Rating: Hiking / tramping, off trail
