A good gravel farm track runs up the west side of the Nigger from Nigger Huts. After 2.5km a junction is reached, marked by a sign saying 'Rest Area 100m'. The main track drops to cross the Nigger and head up the Esk while a dirt track continues up the western bank towards the East Poulter.

This track crosses Mt White Station land and permission is required.
