This steady uphill hike winds through damp forested gullies and drier woodlands on the higher slopes. Walkers can enjoy a variety of habitats and abundant wildlife along the way. This 2.2km hike takes about 1 hour and starts at Neds Gully Camping Area, winding steeply up through Neds Gully to Neds Saddle. The track is easy follow, but requires a medium level of fitness and some bushwalking experience.

From Neds Saddle, the track splits and can lead to Cathedral Peak, Little Cathedral, Neds Peak and The Farmyard, offering a range of more challenging walks for fit adventurous hikers and excellent viewpoints from the high peaks. This walk also forms part of the Cathedral Range Northern Circuit.
