About Mount Gingera
Mount Gingera is a prominent peak in the Brindabella Range within Namadgi National Park on the border of the Australian Capital Territory and New South Wales, southwest of Canberra. Rising to 1,857 metres, it is the second-highest mountain in the ACT. Notable for its alpine landscape, snow-covered winter slopes and panoramic views, it is accessed via the Stockyard Spur walking track from Corin Dam and is popular for challenging day hikes and snowshoeing.
Visitors guide
Visitors can expect a remote alpine peak in Namadgi National Park reached only on foot via the Stockyard Spur Trail from Corin Dam carpark. The route traverses sub-alpine forest, snow gum woodland and open ridgeline to a rocky summit with 360-degree views over the Brindabella Ranges, Canberra region and surrounding valleys. There are no built structures at the summit; the experience is natural and strenuous, with marked trail, signage at the start, and seasonal snow cover in winter.
