    Tips

    This small alpine shelter sits just below Mount Bogong’s summit plateau near the top of Staircase Spur. This compact metal hut provides emergency shelter in the mountain’s harsh and changeable weather, serving as a key waypoint for walkers approaching the summit. Nestled among snow gums and alpine heath, it offers limited protection from wind and snow, but is not intended as primary overnight accommodation.
