Staircase Spur is the most direct and popular route to Mount Bogong’s summit, and is a steep climb from Mountain Creek Track that runs along a well-defined ridge. The track gains elevation quickly through forest before opening up above the treeline onto exposed alpine terrain with expansive views along the way. Known for its sustained grade and minimal flat sections, it’s a challenging but straightforward ascent to Bivouac Hut and the summit plateau.
