 Posted: Sun May 16, 2004 7:26 pm Post subject: DOC Huts |
 |
|
We are somewhat spoilt in New Zealand when it comes to backcountry huts. We have over 1000 public huts ranging from simple rock overhangs to fully serviced huts with gas cooking and heating.
Hut tickets or a annual hut pass are required for the majority of these huts which can be purchased at DOC offices. Having a ticket or annual pass doesn't guarantee a bed though, it works on a first come first served basis, except for huts on the great walks which require booking.
Your annual hut pass or stardard ticket is not valid for the great walks during the booked walking season.
Prices and Categories
Great Walk Hut: $10 – $35 depending on the season
Mattresses, water supply, toilets, hand washing and heating with fuel available. There may be cooking facilities with fuel (no cooking utensils), solar lighting and a warden.
Serviced Hut: $10 (Alpine Serviced huts $20 – $25)
Bunks or sleeping platforms with mattresses, water supply, heating, toilet and hand washing facilities. They may have cooking facilities and a warden on a seasonal basis.
Standard Hut: $5
Bunks or sleeping platforms with mattresses, a toilet and water supply.
Basic Hut/Bivvy: No charge
Basic shelter with limited facilities and services.
An annual hut pass ($90) allows trampers to use most DOC huts (except the Great Walks huts during the booked season from late October to late April).
above sourced from DOC (2007).
Hut Etiquette
Respect the comfort of other occupants.
If the hut is full try and find room for other trampers.
Fill in the hut log book.
Pay your hut fees.
Take ALL your rubbish with you.
Replace any firewood you have used.
If you are last to leave sweep the floor and make sure the hut is secure and tidy.
The new breed of DOC Huts.
Something a bit more rustic
Long Harry Hut - Stewart Island - million dollar views for $5 a night.

| Just a quick correction: You listed Annual Hut Passes as costing $65, the actual price is now $90...but still well worth it. |

Huts pictures and location look really beautiful. The charges are also nominal and after reading description I thought about summer trip. It is really ideal location for summer trip and I hope there climate will also suitable. If anyone has been there during summer vacations share the trip experience.
Best Regards,

TheUGGsin our site are made in china, but this is not the reason why we are cheap.We focus on wholesale business, every UGGsare direct from factory, sold at a surprising low UGGsboots wholesale china price.
To every customer who has such suspects, I clear their suspicion by stick on doing the following things.
Never sell unqualified UGGs, this doesn’t mean our UGGs just ok, we want our UGG boots to be the best quality, no difference with UGG boots Australia.
This is not just boasting, we do what we promised. We have strict process in purchasing material, we employ experts to select the best wool and sheepskin in china, keep the materials in a permanent and stable supply. With such serious attitude we can say out loud with pride that the UGGs we provide you are the best.
More than this, we do a lot of reach in design, manufacture, all the effort we do is to achieve one goal: provide you the lowest china wholesale price with the best UGGs quality.
Every customer that received our UGGslove our boots very much, they like to buy again and again. Although in this 4 years, I had encounter some complains about our products , but the most important thing is we keep perfecting our products. We accept complain even if some are not reasonable, for we know that customers are always right and with their opinion we can really become the best.
If this is the first time you visit our site, the first time you heard our name, if you still have many doubts, please contact us, we are always want to hear your opinions.
Welcome–my friend, welcome you visit UggInStock.com, welcome you ask questions, welcome you buy our product. |
