A little Backpacker Oasis in the heart of Queenstown!

Everything at our Backpacker Lodge has been designed with the discerning traveller in mind, from
the flat-screen TV's in the common areas and private rooms, to the custom designed wooden bunks
with privacy curtains. Our private rooms have hotel standard beds & fluffy pillows. Our lounge has an
extensive DVD library & our two kitchens have free herbs, spices, tea and coffee. We also provide
every guest with free unlimited Wi-Fi for the duration of their stay, naturally!


Whilst we are spread over 3 levels, we are a small Backpackers for fewer than 50 people. This means
that there is more space for you to relax, meet like-minded travelers and plan your adventures in
Queenstown. Our experienced staff are on hand to help with ideas and bookings - just come and
have a chat!


The cherry on top is our location. Haka Lodge is in the center of Queenstown, yet on a quiet one-way
residential street. This means easy access to the town's many activities but also the reassurance of
a peaceful and safe night's sleep in your van. Surrounded by New Zealand's best day nature walks,
mountain climbs and over night tramps you won’t be without an activities for every day you stay.

DESCRIPTION:

'The home of legends, tall stories and laughter.' A page out of history, set on the banks of a glacial stream at the bottom of the hill before the Homer Tunnel, turn at the Lake Marion/Hollyford track corner. There are no power sites as the only electricity is from a generator, only turned on in the evening so you can charge your camera batteries. A new recreation building is ready and houses a kitchen, ablutions and lounge, this facility has disability access. There is a fridge available in the kitchen/dining area, well actually the fridge is masquerading as a freezer, as there is only enough electricity to run it as a fridge! The camp store has food, a selection of Bowenite Greenstone, NZ books and souvenirs for sale, there is a petrol pump too. This is a great base for hunting, fishing and tramping with many day walks for the family, and the Hollyford and Routeburn tracks are close by. Check out New Zealand_s silver beech tree with the largest girth, or pay a visit the Humboldt waterfall, and in the evening see the glow-worms. Spend some time in the museum and wonder at the difficulties encountered building the Milford Road and Homer Tunnel and see the origins of this unique camp.
