Sleep
-Huts:
There is a combination of modern great walk huts and older backcountry huts along the trail. They are generally all well equipped great walk quality huts however not all the older ones have gas and burners to use if you plan on using them.
Avoiding the main huts is a good option for those who want to avoid the crowds.
-Camping:
Camping spots are generally located close to the huts.
-Booking:
Bookings required at all locations.
-Back-country hut pass:
Cannot be used.
What To Take
The exposed nature of the tops mean that good rain gear and warm layers should be taken as a precaution even with good weather forecasted. Given the elevation a reasonably warm sleeping bag will be needed too, depending on the season.
