St James Walkway · 5 days

Places to stay

Huts: There are five Serviced huts on the walkway: Cannibal Gorge, Ada Pass, Christopher, Anne and Boyle Flat huts. Trampers can also stay in Magdalen and Rokeby huts. Camping: Trampers can also camp anywhere along the St James Walkway. If camping outside a hut the fees to camp are equivalent to one level below the hut pricing. This means camping outside serviced huts requires payment of one standard hut ticket per person, camping outside standard huts is free. Campers are encouraged to use the hut toilet facilities.

Anne Hut - Boyle Flat Hut

Time: 7 hr 30 min

km The track crosses a footbridge over the Anne River to gain access to the true left, and 2 km upriver it crosses another footbridge back to the true right. The track continues up and over the Anne Saddle into the Boyle Valley. Orange pole markers indicate the route over the Boyle Flats, past the basic Rokeby Hut. The true left bank is followed to a suspension bridge over the Boyle River, 100 metres from the Boyle Flat Hut.
