Middy Creek Hut | Mt Richmond Forest Park

For a hut so close to Nelson, on a bank just up from the totally gorgeous Pelorus, it’s surprising Middy doesn’t get more visitors. Many on Te Araroa march on past up to Rocks Hut.

One of the old-style NZFS SF70 huts like the one’s either direction, Captains Creek and Middy Creek.
