Track starts boggy, crossing a bridge and passing under a railway line before a steep sustained ascent to Moruisg. Gradient eases near 800m with a straightforward push to the summit. The Corbett is taken via a westward ridge to a saddle, then directly up, with descent track branching left before dropping fully off the Corbett. Return track is boggy and very slippery in wet conditions.
