Twenty Five Mile Hut (dismantled)

Twenty Five Mile Hut (dismantled) was a small backcountry hut in Otago, New Zealand, standing at about 547 m. It was built in 1897 and provided sleeping for 4 people before it was demolished in 2016 due to severe disrepair and vandalism concerns.

Use of the hut site was tied to private pastoral land (Rees Valley Station). The hut’s former footprint isn’t generally available for public use without prior consent, so treat this as a historical reference point rather than a functioning shelter when planning a trip.
