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.
GOOGLE REVIEWS
Outstanding - we had our last meal in Glenorchy here and I wish we'd known about The Great Glenorchy Alpine Base Camp before. Liz and Douglas are truly wonderful people. Exceptional food and company. I hope to be back one day to stay!
An amazing experience, the food and hospitality was unbelievable and Liz and her offsider extended a amazing welcome and excellent service plus. We stopped there for our son's birthday. A experience not to be missed!
There is nothing we would change about this place, and the
prodigious hosts. Highly recommend it, the place, the people, the scenic views, the comfort, the inspiration, the food, the gateway to mountaineering heaven.
From the moment you step into TGGABC you know you've discovered something special. From the beautifully considered and thoughtfully designed cabins and communal areas to the warmth and hospitality of owners Liz and Doug, who make you feel like you are part of the GY Alpine Base Camp family as soon as you arrive. Our group of 12 ladies were so well looked after, our stay began with a sauna to soothe any aches after our hiking adventure to Lake Rere and refreshing dip in the Greenstone River. We were then treated to the most delectable slow cooked meal served in cast iron pots as we dined and chatting happily by candlelight. Set in the heart of Glenorchy in the midst of the majestic Fiordland National Park you have views of mountain tops wherever your eyes take you and the star gazing at night is spectacular. The cabins are super cosy and comfy and are equip with all you need - I especially love that you get your own hot water bottle! This is one of those places that you are already trying to figure out how to get back to again, and who else you can share it with, within hours of arriving. You'll know what I mean when you try it for yourself. 10/10.
