Neill Forks Hut
Tararua Forest Park
Hidden away and camouflaged in green and orange. 6 bunks with mattresses. Water from river. The fireplace is OK. Photo taken from helicopter landing clearing nearby. The Hector River is worth a side-trip up or downstream.
The hut now also boasts a new porch (the iron on which is rusting already), and a wood-burner instead of the cavernous fireplace and chimney down which river-spray used to waft.
