The Welcome Flat Hut is a super comfy, nicely situated DOC hut in the Copland valley. Its dramatic location between massive mountains offers a good contrast between its modern look and the mystic mountains.

Photography Tips

You do not necessarily need a super wide angle here. However, you would wanna go deep into the frog position to achieve good results.

Travel Information

This is quite a long hike through forests, sometimes flooded sections and rivers. One way covers approx. 18km with 700m elevation. You need to reserve the hut in advance to get a spot. Better be early. Sometimes this area can be closed due to floods - check always with DOC about the conditions.
