Hope your holidays have been nothing short of legendary! We know some of you might be itching to get outdoors, and we have some inspo for you.
If you need gear, the gear locker will only be open weekly by request. Please email gear officers at gear@cutc.org.nz
And just a heads-up: if you’re thinking of heading out but need a few more bodies to make it a trip, don’t forget to post your plans on the CUTC All Things Trips Facebook page.
-Benmore hut: great intro to tramping or quick getaway! 1 hour drive, 2 hour walk to this cute hut with the option to walk to the tops for a stunning sunset. Non-bookable hut- check out the DOC website for more info!
-For those looking for a harder trip but not necessarily a super long trip. A Crow Hut avalanche peak loop is a classic weekend mission in the Arthur’s Pass National Park. Be sure to Google the route before you go, as there are heaps of advice, maps and beta online for this route. Depending on how you plan, there may be a hitchhike, road walk or a carefully placed bike needed.
Let’s get out there and make the most of our beautiful country!!🌲🥾
