About The Great Glenorchy Alpine Base Camp

The Great Glenorchy Alpine Base Camp in Glenorchy combines a wood-fired licensed restaurant, hut-style accommodation and private guided adventure packages. Base Camp Kitchen feeds the guests, and the huts take their cue from the mountaineer's huts of the Southern Alps, with wood-burners in a range of hut layouts.

Glamping and small private group packages sit alongside the lodge, with transfers, logistics, pack lists, specialist equipment and inductions all handled for guests. The base also runs workshops and events and works within the South West New Zealand World Heritage Area.

Reviewers praise the cooking, describe eating at the kitchen every night and mention a lakeside fire-cooked meal arranged for a group with ten young children. They also say guests feel like family from the first day.
