An outdoor education centre at the upper end of Moores Valley Road in Wainuiomata, about 40 minutes' drive from central Wellington. The centre sits on more than 260 hectares of native bush and parkland, and it is owned by Scouts NZ. It offers accommodation and conference facilities, and it is used for school camps, Scout camps, family reunions, music festivals, training courses and group camping.
The centre was given to Scouting in 1958, and its history includes an original farmhouse and a campfire circle built in 1961. A lounge named after the Nelson brothers, who were long-time friends of the property's owner, is one of its buildings.
Enquiries are made through the contact form, and there is a separate booking enquiry form. The centre is run by volunteers, so the website asks for patience with replies. Directions are on a location page.
