Aparima Hut — new | Takitimu Conservation Area

It’s the new Aparima Hut, but not that new, maybe 30+ years old. Well sited on a clearing high above the river and right next door to the old one.

Still, it’s comfortable enough in the standard DOC fashion; at least it has some reasonable-sized windows to get some light to the interior.
