I did the walk some years ago, Tassie locals would have more up to date info. Especially regarding any track closures etc following the SW fires.
But yes, there is a well defined track from the Wedge River Picnic Ground. Quite steep once you start the ascent proper, but not overly difficult.
I found it a tight fit in places as the scrub encroaches a bit, making it somewhat narrow. I can't recall the exact time we took, and we did it in the rain which slowed us down.
I'd guess maybe 1.5 hours each way as a ball park estimate (YMMV). Due to the sketchy weather once we reached the tops we didn't go up to the true summit, so allow extra time for that.
Thought I had track notes somewhere, either written or online. If I manage to unearth them I'll update this.
