Riordans Hut | Kahurangi National Park

Riordans Hut is an old, 1926, musterers’ hut from the days when sheep grazed up on the cleared land, well, before the 1950s.

Built from local materials that have been hand sawn and adzed from local windfall. It has been very sympathetically restored.

A real trip back in time.
