Helicopter Flat Hut | Kahurangi National Park
Helicopter Flat Hut is an original NZFS hut that appears to have been extended and renovated at some stage, probably around 1980 when Taipo Hut was built.
Good location on a river terrace not far from the Karamea River. Look out for the whio/blue ducks on the river.
