Wild guess - is this coming down the Cheyne Range towards Lake Hermione?

Nope, not the Cheyne Range but not too far away as the crow flies. The body of water up top is a named lake that passes by a well used track. The tarn below is unnamed and is accessed via a lesser used pad.
That looks like a pad.

You are heading in the right direction but still a bit off. I'll give another clue for a small fee.. :roll:

Thought the view of Eldon Crag would be enough. You are both correct.

You said that last time. I wouldn't have reposted it if you'd been right.

Where is/are Hummocky Hills?

I thought I had, but didn't see anything when I looked back.. sigh.
Its out from Poatina, a bit south east from Cressy.
I thought the backdrop might be Billop Bluff / Mt Blackwood

Wrong side of the centre line.

Things you got right:
Numbers of words and syllables in the name.
Final letter of name.
There is a *something* Bluff on that ridge.

Yep, that's it. Interesting spot to wander around, and one can't help wondering what it was like before the drains were put in there. Maybe I shouldn't have lumped all the clues in one post.
