Cullers Hut | Ruataniwha Conservation Park
Cullers Hut is mostly used by hunters. It has been partially renovated. Some work still needs to be done on the piles.
Set on a river terrace above the valley floor, and some may need to look around to find it. Similarly, the toilet is quite a walk back down the hill.
