Homestead Hunters Hut | Rakiura National Park, Stewart Island

The Homestead Hunters Hut is another newish Stewart Island hunters’ hut. Not for use by casual trampers. On the edge of manuka scrub so there’s some firewood around.

Has all the amenities of the usual DOC hut, with some useful additions abandoned by previous hunting parties: pots and pans, books, etc.

For more information refer to the Rakiura Hunter Camps Charitable Trust website.
