Arete Forks hut is located at the confluence of the Arete Stream and the Waingawa river. It is prone to flooding, and a few years ago the toilet was recovered from down the Waingawa river!
Sleeps: Six
Heating: New wood burner
Camping: A little bit, the once good camping upstream has been blown apart by gravel from slips in the upper Waingawa.
This features a new firebox, a great winter hideaway. Richie
The toilet was not recovered from down the Waingawa R , in fact it was relocated from old altegether precarious site to the present location . At the same time the hut was repiled etc.
