  • There is an easier route to Mt Cobbler than the one from Cobbler Lake. Proceed 4.3 km past Cobbler Lake toward Mt Speculation (4wd only). A track leaves the road to the right, marked by a small cairn. Leave the car here. A few metres up the track you reach a large camping flat. Pick up the track on the opposite side of the clearing. It's marked by a single AWT marker. The track sidles around the headwaters of the Dandongadale River and eventually meets the Cobbler Lake track shortly before the steep ascent to the summit ridge. This route is shorter, easier and more attractive than the Lake track. It's easy to follow, although there is a dog-leg turn about half-way that could be missed on the return journey. Note that both routes to Cobbler can be tricky in bad weather, as it's easy to lose the track.
