Routeburn Flats Hut

Mount Aspiring National Park, Te Wāhipounamu - South West New Zealand World Heritage Area

A large hut on the Routeburn Track, often bypassed for the Routeburn Falls Hut which is 1 hour further along the track. However this is a worthwhile place to stay as you can do a side trip up the North Branch of the Routeburn. The raspberry bushes just outside the front door are a feature of this hut going back many generations.
