Mid Goulter Hut | Mt Richmond Forest Park

Some years ago Mid Goulter Hut was hauled 20 m up the hill and reorientated to catch the afternoon sun. At that time, it was renovated, a verandah and additional windows installed, I guess serious insulation as well, and now it’s the most pleasant accommodation around.

The only real issue is the distance to the river to obtain water, but there is a large bucket supplied.
