Warden Hut
Ka Whata Tu o Rakihouia Conservation Park
Tidy modern hut on a tributary of Cold Stream, on the way into the Clarence River.
The walk in is about 6 hours, with another 3-4 hours to reach Seymour Hut on the Clarence River.
The 4WD track over Blind Saddle is open to walkers and mountain bikers at all times. Horses require a permit, and 4WD access is on 5 4WD weekends per year. These are generally in January / February.
