To the north, the Overland Track follows the Narcissus river to Windy Ridge Hut, approximately three hours walk.
To the south, it skirts the southern shore of Lake St Clair for 5–6 hours, arriving at the Cynthia Bay trailhead, and the Visitors Centre.
There is a small jetty on the lake near the hut. During the peak summer season, a ferry runs between the visitors centre and Narcissus Hut, taking 30 minutes and costing A$37.50.
