THE GREAT GLENORCHY ALPINE BASE CAMP

WELCOME TO OUR PLACE

Base Camp was created from a love of our backyard and a desire to share it with you. We know you won’t forget your experience with us, and we won’t forget you.

WOOD-FIRED LICENSED RESTAURANT

We look at our restaurant a little differently. It’s much more like dinner at our place. Enjoy decision-free family-style dining, with all food cooked in cast iron over wood fire.

MOUTAINEER'S HUT-STYLE ACCOMMODATION

Inspired by the historic mountaineer’s huts that typify the NZ Southern Alps (with a few added luxuries) our accommodation has been created by adventurers for adventurers.

LIFE CHANGING PRIVATE GUIDED ADVENTURES

We conceive and curate a range of wild nature experiences for you here in The UNESCO South West NZ World Heritage Area, with something for everyone, every single day of the year.

We had a multi generational family holiday at base camp, accommodated in three separate 'huts'. Base camp was a launching pad for daily doses of adventure. Each evening was a home cooked, candle lit, cast iron skillet and pot filled dinner around a long candlelit table with fresh faces or family. The accommodation was a carefully melded mix of Swedish spa, alpine hut, nordic lodge: all woodsmoke and stone, Cedar lined and feather down. We loved it. Glenorchy is a magic place and Liz and Doug were the best hosts, helping to create a magic holiday for the whole family.
Had the most spectacular stay before heading off to do the Routeburn - perfect spot to get you excited for hiking but with the luxuries of a comfy bed and fantastic food. Alana & Katie provided impeccable & personable service - making each guest feel special and welcomed. The whole team was great. Would happily stay here again and would recommend ☺️
We own an eco resort in the Pacific Islands, and are so impressed with this place. They get it, and offer superb and authentic experiences whether you are hiking, dining or adventuring. Book in here and you will not regret it! Well done Doug and Liz!!! Your fans from Sea Change Eco Retreat.
This is a truly special place run by very kind and caring humans. I really enjoyed my time staying here.
