This collection highlights the backcountry network of the Tasman Region, spanning Nelson Lakes and Kahurangi National Parks. It features historic sites like Asbestos Cottage, where residents lived in isolation for decades, and high-alpine destinations like Angelus Hut, situated at 1,650 meters. The list covers essential stopovers for the Travers-Sabine Circuit and the Tablelands tracks, including Blue Lake Hut, located near the world’s clearest freshwater lake. These huts provide shelter for hikers navigating limestone karst landscapes and glacial valleys.
