After an initial tough descent through thick tussock to the scrubline, a good cut track leads straight down the spur to the Mungo River below. Here it joins the track heading down the Mungo from Mungo Hut and the Hokitika Saddle, a crossing into the Wilberforce. Heading downriver from the trock junction, it’s 500m to the swingbridge, which crosses to Homeward Spur and the upper Hokitika. Poet Hut is a further 500m down the sidle track below the swingbridge, beyond inviting blue pools.
