Rakeahua Hut Guide

  • Place: Rakiura National Park
  • Facilities: Rakeahua Hut rests beside the Rakeahua River in Rakiura National Park, offering six bunks in a modest, wood‑heated shelter. Managed by the Department of Conservation, it lies along the remote Southern Circuit, accessible via a challenging multi‑day tramp prone to flooding. The hut’s tap water must be boiled before use, and its simple comforts—mattresses, heating and basic sanitation—reflect its rugged island setting.
