About
The original huts were built at The Junction in the 1930's by gold fossickers during the depression however the hut that stands today was built in 2015 after the 2013 wildfire. If you are traveling past make sure you stop and check the view from the hut or dip your feet in the cool river.
Camping
Junction Hut can accomodate 6-8 people at this peaceful riverside site, with a picnic table and toilet also on site. If the hut is occupied limited tent camping space can be found by following the track to the right as you hit the river.
