From Rangi Saddle a fain ground trail drops down the guts of the face to the NE, through thick speargrass. Warratahs confuse, more than help. Once at the forks in the head of the creek, follow the creek down, initially on the wetsern bank some 15m out of the river, later crossing to the east. A cut, marked track finally appears when you hit the bushedge, and criss-crosses the creek for a few hunderd meters before depositing you on the gravel rivcerbed. Follow this to the forks at teh hut.

Waikamaka Hut is reached by a short track some 20m up the eastern fork, signposted on the southern bank.
