All Tracks Lead to Crosbies
Accessible from numerous directions Crosbies is ideal if you're into logistically difficult loop walks. Take your choice of Tapu Hill, Waiomu, Te Puru, Tararu, Waiotahi, Karaka, Whangatirenga, Booms or Wainora as possible start / end points. Most of these points will take you 3-4 hours to reach the hut.
Crosbies Settlement is an old farm settlement that was established in the Coromandel Ranges in 1880. It was farmed until about 1970, when the area was subsumed into the Coromandel Forest Park. The remains of the farms can be found with enough patience. The new hut was completed in 2011.
