“The home of legends, tall stories and laughter.” A page out of history, set on the banks of a glacial stream at the bottom of the hill before the Homer Tunnel, turn at the Lake Marion/Hollyford track corner. No power sites as the only electricity is from a generator which is turned on in the evening so you can charge your camera batteries. A new recreation building is ready and houses a kitchen, ablutions and lounge. This facility has disability access. The camp store has food, a selection of Bowenite Greenstone, NZ books and souvenirs for sale. There is a petrol pump too. This is a great base for hunting, fishing and tramping with many day walks for the family. The Hollyford and Routeburn tracks are close by. Check out the biggest girth Silver Beech tree in New Zealand, visit the Humboldt waterfall and in the evening visit the glow-worms. Spend some time in the museum and wonder at the difficulties encountered building the Milford Road and Homer Tunnel, and see the origins of this unique camp. Campsites are in private ‘hideaways’. . The Hollyford Museum Charitable Trust own this property. Your friendly hosts are Reid and Lyn or Mark and Debbie Sites are $10 per adult. Bookings may be made by email. |
