Kiwi Mouth Hut is an ideal tramping stopover point for access into the southern area of Manson Country and the more remote western areas of the Kaweka Forest Park.
It is located on the western Kaweka Forest Park boundary on the banks of the Ngaruroro River. This is at the foot of the area known as Manson Country.
Built in 1960, this hut has retained its original standard design with an open fireplace. This hut is a comfortable base for many hunting opportunities. At 620 metres altitude, this hut is positioned on a level site close to Kiwi Creek and above the Ngaruroro River. Relatively sheltered from the strong westerly winds common to this area, the hut can experience a wide range of climatic conditions which can include brief snowfalls during cold southerly weather and heavy winter frosts.
