Helen Lake (not beyond)

Tent Ridge Horseshoe

One short (about ten steps) section through a rock face with some exposure. This is a glorious 3-km ridge walk for a comparatively small effort. The views are magnificent and we get to eat lunch with a view of Mount Smuts.

Hike up North Buller Pass then walk through the meadow connecting to South Buller Pass , some steep sections but no scrambling
