Take a breath of fresh air and step back in time. This unique stone/slab cattlemen's hut, in the picturesque Moonbah Valley, Jindabyne, has private frontage to the Blue Ribbon declared Moonbah River - the region's most pristine trout stream, (complete with resident platypus).

The hut also fronts a small lake/dam containing brown, rainbow and brook trout.

The hut is a pleasant 15 minute drive from Jindabyne.

Explore the bordering Kosciuszko National Park, (100 metres from the Hut).

Savour the mountain air and clear night skies with a gazillion stars - an astronomer's paradise.

Go for a walk and see brumbies, wild deer, wombats, 60 plus species of birdlife...take a picture...paint a picture...the scenery is breathtaking!

If you're feeling particularly invigorated, go mountain biking -(Norco 24 speed, suspension Mountain Bikes are available for hire),or maybe for a swim in the icy river!

If this all sounds a little too tiring just sit in a rocking chair on the verandah and read a good book.

The hut is very cosy, (even in mid August at -15c),and sleeps a maximum 4 people, ideally 2 adults and 2 young children. The bedding is high quality and all beds have electric blankets. All linen is supplied.

There is an inside bathroom, (no outhouses here).

Local telephone is connected. Unfortunately,or perhaps fortunately?, there is no mobile reception. If you need to make a long distance call, you may do so via reverse charges.

Fishing is outstanding! Expert guiding, tuition or flytying can be arranged.

One of the hut's most beautiful features is the huge stone open fireplace and with snow on Christmas Day or Boxing Day in 5 of the past 7 years, the fire can be enjoyed on most nights. There is also a wood stove (& an electric hotplate)for cooking and a small fridge/freezer to store your catch! All cutlery, crockery, cookware etc is supplied.

There are few modern appliances, as the hut is very traditional e.g. no television reception!

Moonbah Hut is an ideal summer or winter getaway.
