The Seaman's Hut was first built in 1929 in memory of skier Laurie Seaman, who passed in a blizzard one year before. The stone hut was built as an emergency shelter for skiers and hikers caught in bad weather on the mountain. Today, the hut is open year-round as a safe haven and historical point of interest while exploring Australia's highest alpine terrain. There is also a modern pit toilet.

Mt Cooke Hut is a standard Bibbulmun Track campsite set among jarrah forest on the northern side of the circuit. There is a three-sided timber shelter, tent sites, a water tank, and a drop toilet, providing a simple overnight stop for walkers. Its quiet bush setting makes it a practical base for completing the loop or continuing along the track.

New Pelion Hut sits on the Pelion Plains beside Douglas Creek, and is a key overnight stop roughly halfway along Tasmania’s Overland Track. This designated public campsite surrounds the hut with raised tent platforms, composting toilets, and rainwater tanks, providing additional capacity for walkers. Camping and hut use are covered by the Overland Track fee (about AUD $300 per adult in peak season), which must be booked and paid in advance via the official Tasmania Parks booking portal: https://www.service.tas.gov.au/services/recreation-and-animals/parks-and-reserves/book-the-overland-track.

Bivouac with 24 places, tables, benches and tanks for collecting rainwater.
