The route down from the Kylie Biv turnoff to the biv itself follows a steep, narrow spur SE. The route is marked with warratahs and cairns, dropping into leatherwood, where there is a well cut track (2018). The biv sits among tall leatherwood on a flat shoulder of the spur. The view from the bivis unimpressive, but the long-drop 20m beyond looks all the way down the Makaroro to the plains below.
