Wainuiomata and its surroundings have long been home to numerous huts and cottages. These structures offer shelter and accommodation in the wilderness areas and reserves. Though many have fallen into disrepair and been demolished, each one carries unique tales of adventure from a time when Wainuiomata was more isolated than it is today.
