7 Mile Hut
Grotty old NZFS 6 bunker I think. Was gutted internally but now has had 2 bunks installed - possibly by a possum hunter who was ensconced in the early winter of 2011. No other refurbishments noted. It has additional innersprung mattresses. The magnificent road to this hut is now gone when the Taipo shifted over to the true right of the valley.

Getting there

Via 4WD track from State Highway 73, one km north-east from the Taipo bridge. Or from Kelly Tops. Or from upper Taipo via Harman or other passes nearby. Or from Hunts Creek via Dry Creek. Or the Arahura via Newton Saddle and Dunns Creek. So many ways... |
