Hay Paddock Route

Cross from the Granity Pass Hut to the prominent old lateral moraine (known as the Railway Embankment). Ground trails lead onto a large area of schist-based tussock and tarns (known as the Hay Paddock), which overlies the predominant marble of the Mt Owen massif. From tarns south of Sentinel Hill, aim for the best route onto the rock and then onto the ridge north of the peak.
