From ABC cave, drop back to the main benched track and follow it SW as it gently climbs the valleyside, reaching the ridgeline after 500m. A good farm track follows the ridgeline SW, desending over pt538 before reaching a farm gate. The walking track leaves the farm track here, remaining on the south of the fence, and drops a spur to hit the river below Jubilee Hut - visible opposite. The river is generally ankle deep and crossable in all but extreme conditions. A short steep climb up the far valleyside leads to the hut, which has been rebuilt in this sunny location in 2007 to replace to old valley floor hut.
