| South East Ridge | 2 |
|
||||||||
|
Climb the Scabbard Glacier to the col between Sword and Milne Peaks and follow the South
East Ridge to the top. The last 100 metres presents the best climbing.
The South East Ridge has also been approached from the Havelock River, beginning 600
metres up from Veil Bivouac. Steep scrub blends into good tussock benches on a spur south-east
of the marked 40-metre waterfall, leading to the Milne–Sword ridge

| North Ridge | 2 |
|
||||||||
|
From the upper Havelock River follow a tussock and rock ridge leading to the snow basin north
of Sword Peak and climb this to the Main Divide. Traverse a bump at the foot of the North
Ridge and the steep but broken rock slabs. Continue up, passing an ice bulge on the west and
follow the summit ridge along snow.
