Tableland Volunteer Hut Warden, Kahurangi National Park

Look after huts from Flora to Balloon Hut, including Salisbury Lodge: cleaning, visitor information, hut ticket checks and minor maintenance. Stints are 7 nights over 8 days from mid-December to mid-February. You need solid backcountry experience and the fitness to walk 4 to 6 hours a day with a heavy pack. DOC provides an induction, safety gear and a food allowance. Applicants undergo safety and criminal record checks.
