Mt. St. Piran summit Hike (D)
Hike to the summit of Mt. St. Piran with exceptional views of L. Louise and the Lakes in the Clouds on the way. The second half of the trail (beyond Little Beehive) is unmaintained and a bit rough but this is not a scramble. 920 meters el. gain is continuous over a bit less than 7km, or 15km round trip with a couple of short viewpoint detours. This workout is rated difficult but it's worth it for the continuous panoramas above the treeline.
