I LOSE THE TRACK...LOST!! - Macauley Hut

Macaulay Hut is in the Kahui Kaupeka Conservation Park. This hut is 17km up the Macaulay River and access is by 4WD vehicles, walking or mountain biking.

Cross the Macaulay River at the ford and look out for the DOC signs on the riverbed directing you towards Macaulay Hut Track. Keep to the 4WD track initially as this is a public access easement through private farmland. Further up valley when you’re in Te Kahui Kaupeka Conservation Park, you are free to roam in the riverbed area.

It almost gets as wild as a 4WD 24-7 trip, but not really.... :)
