ROUTEBURN TRACK
ACCOMMODATION
IN GLENORCHY
ONE MORE NIGHT IN THE MOUNTAINS
Doing the Routeburn Track this season? Don’t rush a good thing, stay with us! We’re a popular licensed wood-fired restaurant and mountaineering hut-style accommodation — designed and built by trampers with little touches here and there to create the perfect mountaineering base camp.
THE PERFECT START OR FINISH
Here in Glenorchy, we are only a 30 minute drive from the Routeburn Shelter — the start or finish point for the Routeburn depending on the direction you are walking.
START WITH US
Spend a night in the mountains and hit the ground running. Dine at our wood-fired restaurant ahead of a night in a cosy mountaineers hut and rise to a nutritious protein-rich breakfast before you head off.
END WITH US
No need to rush back to civilisation, come back to ours for a hot shower and sauna ahead of a night of fun in our wood-fired restaurant, retire to one of our cosy mountaineer’s huts and wake up to breakfast before your transfer back to Queenstown.
THE ULTIMATE HIKING BASE
As hikers ourselves, we’ve put a lot of thought into what makes for the perfect tramping base — from our unique approach to our accommodation and restaurant to handy additions like our sauna, trail food & supplies, and so much more.
OUR HUTS
Our award-winning accommodation is inspired by the historic mountaineer’s huts that typify the New Zealand Southern Alps, complete with wood-burners and a variety of bunk configurations and a few added comforts that make all the difference.
BASE CAMP KITCHEN
We think of our restaurant a little differently, it’s much more like dining at our place. We cook everything over wood-fire and serve it on a long table in the cast iron pots it was prepared in — so you can share a table, food and stories with interesting mountain loving people like yourself.
