Very small hut, worth a look, close to the Yankee Hat car park.

Hospital Creek Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Cute little historic hut - there’s a creek nearby, but access is often overgrown and boggy, there’s no toilet at this hut.

Boboyan Homestead Ruins

Highlight • Historical Site

The remains of the old Boboyan Homestead circa 1866

Once owned by an early settler of the area named David Brayshaw, and one of several historical homesteads in Australia's alpine region that have been maintained for public use.

There isn't much inside - a couple of chairs and a table. There is a fireplace and if you're lucky, someone may have left some firewood, but this is not guaranteed. There are often candles available for use also.

This is one of the easier to get to alpine huts and is clearly visible from the road, which means there isn't much here due to looters etc... It is still a decent place to spend the night, just a bit basic.

We spent the night in the hut after a tough day of riding and it worked out great! There are two rooms, and the second room within is a great place to set up a freestanding tent if you require some extra warmth or want to keep the bugs out.

There is a rainwater tank, I would suggest filtering or otherwise treating the water before use.

There is also a basic toilet nearby, closer to the road.
