Little Hellfire Hunters Hut, Rakiura National Park

The latest of the 16 hunters huts built by the Rakiura Hunter Camp Trust, they also maintain two other hunters huts built earlier. They have the design just about perfect.

A short walk from the beach with its mountains of firewood. Tucked into some shrubbery just behind the sand dunes. The beach is a constant presence with the big waves constantly roaring in.

For more information refer to the Rakiura Hunter Camp Trust website.

Note: trampers should not stay here.
