Casey Hut (Arthurs Pass National Park): Weekend Trip – Cancelled

January 27 @ 8:00 am - January 28 @ 6:00 pm

This trip was cancelled, due to unfavourable weather conditions.  It will be run at another date (not yet set).

Casey Hut is a 12 bunk serviced hut, accessed from Andrews Shelter either by Andrews Stream and Casey Saddle or via Binser Saddle and the Poulter River. According to DoC it takes 6 to 8 hours to get to the hut via Andrews Stream, so a good level of fitness will be required. The exact route taken will be decided on the day, depending on the conditions at the time.

The hut was opened in 2020, thanks to a generous donation by one of our Life Members, and replaces one burnt down in 2015. Bookings are not required, but as it is a “Serviced” hut, the appropriate hut tickets or passes must be taken.

Ben and Barry are organising this trip, so contact them as below for further information. As Ben works shifts it would be best to contact him by text, and he will get back to you.

Given the nature of the area this trip will be weather-dependent, so will only go ahead if conditions are favourable.

Grade: Moderate to Fit
Organisers: Ben 027 3880671 / Barry 6885320 or 021 02689877
