  • Cape Brett Hut was originally one of three houses at Cape Brett built in 1909 to house the lighthouse keepers and their families. After the lighthouse was decommissioned in 1978 most of the buildings at the cape were left to rot, but thankfully in 1996 DOC completely renovated the last remaining house, converting it into the awesome 23-bunk hut it is today. The hut has lots of room and all of the amenities you'd expect including 3 gas cookers. The surrounding area is absolutely stunning, with dramatic views, breathtaking cliff-faces and extremely vivid colours. It truly is one of the most spectacular outdoor destinations at the northern end of the country. The track to the hut is a long and deceivingly difficult 16km, with 1100 metres of climb, taking most people about 8 hours. Thankfully the track is not the only way to reach the hut, as water taxis operate from the bay of islands and can pick you up or drop you off at or near the hut.

    "Huts of New Zealand" is a new video series I'm creating, in which I travel to backcountry huts all around NZ to record, review and rate my experiences to give you a better idea of what to expect when you go hiking around our beautiful country.

    Excellent video. Camera was held steady - no quick landscape swing-arounds 🤢 Great map graphics, history and information. I use a similar format for my own videos, so appreciate the work required to produce a product like this. Thank you! 👍

    Bloody good video mate! I hope people appreciate the fact that you not only walked the 8hr track, but you went back and fourth to capture walking shots aswell. 👍😍

    I just showed this to my 91 year old Mum. She was at the Cape from 1935 until 1945 because they didn't move families around during the war. She loved seeing your video and commented on all the views and old images. It was lovely for her.

    This tramp is one of the best in the country - since first doing this with the Glendowie college tramping club in 1989 when the original track didn't even follow the ridge out there (and only making it as far as Deep Water cove) we managed to get out there a number of times through the 1990's with friends. Before the refit the hut even had a claw foot bath and a flush toilet and the kitchen still had those deep flour draws and classic formica tables. If doing the track I'd recommend taking the full set up of flippers, goggles and snorkel to enjoy the channel which has as much fish life as Goat island. Also you can climb up the rock across the channel - there's even a fence post at the top and awesome views across to Percy Island. And to the Maori lads who re-built the track ka pai...
