Waitawheta Hut
Another great option near to the big smoke (Auckland). Before coming here, I had spent plenty of time as a kid in the nearby Waikino gorge exploring all of the various mine tunnels of the windows walk and marvelling at the impressive gorge walk.
The Waitawheta Tramway is the perfect addition to this nearby attraction giving those who want an overnight adventure somewhere to sleep overnight and offering a great easy-going path to get there and back.
