Sunrise Hut
Ruahine Forest Park
Nice Hut, 24 bunks lockwood style with great views over Hawkes Bay. Sits at an elevation of approx. 1300m, stunning views in winter. "The original hut was constructed in 1983 by NZFS. It was upgraded in 2005. This is a large hut that is a popular recreational destination for day trips or weekend visits. The hut is heated by a gas with a double burner gas stove top. It is a popular, easy walk for many family groups. In winter, there is generally snow around the hut." -DOC Website.
