Facilities

Kahurangi Outpost is an accommodation lodge for up to 28 people in a remote corner of Kahurangi National Park, New Zealand. It is at Mangarakau, Golden Bay, at the top and west of the South Island of New Zealand. The building was once Mangarakau Primary School from 1948 to 1997. The tennis court and small swimming pool are still in use.

To the original classroom (now a lounge) has been added 4 bedrooms. Each bedroom contains one double bed and some singles, usually as bunks.  The smallest bedroom sleeps a maximum of 5, the largest 9.  The native forest is spectacular, the birdlife prolific, the bird song a symphony especially at dawn and dusk. Behind and above the site are impressive limestone bluffs and the view from the front is over the Mangarakau wetlands which is now a reserve. There are many things you could choose to do while here.  See the link to Activities
