Waerenga Hut, is the club's hut on the eastern side of the Orongorongo River in the Rimutaka Forest Park. The club has had a hut near this site since 1931, and the current hut was built in 1961 and moved to its current site in 2009. The hut is well placed for the many walks and tramps available in the Rimutaka Forest Park, including the climb of Mt Matthews, and trips to other peaks, the South Coast, Wainuiomata, and the Wairarapa. Or just as a place to relax away from it all. The hut is locked, and is available to members free of charge, and for a fee to responsible members of the public. The hut was undermined in the massive floods of 31 March 2005, and was resited in 2009. Contact the booking office Brian Landymore -> mailto:ttc-waerenga@ttc.org.nz?Subject=Query%20from%20TTC%20website on (04) 478 0169 for details. Non member fees are $10/adult/night, and $5/child over 5 per night. Members are free. Waerenga appears to mean "clearing", an appropriate name for a hut.
