Hut, also known as Landrover Hut, is a modest grazing-era shelter located west of Tantangara Dam in Kosciuszko National Park. Built in 1951 by Hainsworth and Corkhill, the hut was used during the final phase of high-country pastoral activity. Its location on open plains near the Mosquito Trail makes it easily accessible from Ghost Gully Campground via the Port Phillip Fire Trail.
The hut consists of two rooms, with corrugated iron walls and roof, a wooden floor, and three shuttered windows. It’s particularly recognizable by its distinctive “eyebrow” window latches—a quirky detail that helps identify it in photographs. Though simple in design, it reflects the utilitarian style of mid-20th-century grazing huts and remains in good condition today.
Stewardship is shared between NPWS and informal volunteer efforts. The hut is maintained as a heritage shelter and waypoint for trail users. Interpretive signage is recommended to highlight its grazing history and role in early vehicle access.
