The Cascade Saddle Track, also known as the Cascade Saddle Route, is a 25 km (16 mi) alpine tramping track in the Mount Aspiring National Park, New Zealand that takes approximately four days to complete.

There is a steep scrambling climb from Aspiring Hut towards the Cascade Saddle itself, reaching a maximum elevation of 1,835 m (6,020 ft).

[1] The tramping route has been highlighted as one of the most dangerous, both in New Zealand and worldwide, due to the hazardous alpine nature of the track.

[1][3][4][5] A 2014 proposal to install safety rails was not adopted, partly so as not to encourage attempts by less-experienced hikers.

[7] In 2012, a senior software engineer employed by Google, Frank Spychalski, died on the Cascade Saddle route after falling 200 m (660 ft).
