    Tips

    March 8, 2022

    Moturau Hut is a refuge with 40 places divided into dormitories. As with the other two Kepler Track refuges, it is essential to reserve your place well in advance:

    In addition, this refuge, unlike Iris Burn, does not have any camping pitches nearby.

    Moturau Hut is installed on a privileged site, facing Lake Manapouri, right in the center of Shallow Bay. This will allow you to dine or drink your morning coffee while enjoying a unique view of the fjords.

      The hut is in a completely different position… the hut sits nicely above a beach

        The hut is beautifully located on the lake with a small beach
