About this hunting block
Location
Tussock Hut is located at the upper (northern) end of the Harkness Valley, on a tributary of Ngaawapurua (Harkness) Stream.
Access
Open top areas can be reached by travelling south to Bare Top and/or the Te Rua Tops.
More adventurous hunting can be made by accessing the ridge tops by either gully or spur travel and then dropping down into the next catchment area. The beech forest covered terrain is less steep than many other parts of the park.
Making the best use of main tracks when planning a hunting adventure will help ensure a safe and easy return.
Dogs
Only registered, avian aversion certified hunting dogs, guide dogs, companion dogs (certified by the Top Dog Companion Trust) and dogs used for special services (including conservation management activities) are permitted in the park. All other dogs are banned.
