Riordans Hut | Kahurangi National Park
Riordans Hut is an old 1926 musterers’ hut from the days when sheep grazed up on the cleared land, ie, before the 1950s.
Built from local materials that have been hand-sawed and adzed from the local windfall. It has been very sympathetically restored.
A real trip back in time.
