Piggotts Hut
Hunua Ranges Regional Park
Piggotts hut at Piggotts campsite in Hunua Ranges Regional Park, controlled by Auckland council.
Now has a nice roofed deck and table since 2015.
Access to weather station is via an unmarked good gravel track, take left at the cross intersection near the hut, it's the track opposed to Rata Ridge track. Weather station location gives excellent network coverage.
