Out In The Styx Guesthouse

Photo © Out in the Styx Guesthouse

Out in the Styx Guesthouse is a unique, peaceful, rural retreat nestled in the heart of the Waikato with the 3,400 hectare Maungatautari wildlife sanctuary literally on its doorstep. Our 3 ½ star Qualmark rated accommodation includes a range of options from our themed ensuite rooms to our 15 bed bunkhouse – all with views of Maungatautari. Join us for one of our locally famous delicious dinners, a warm winter fire and an informative chat with your convivial hosts. Day and night guided walks on Maungatautari are available by arrangement with proceeds going to the Maungatautari Ecological Island Trust. Tomtits, kaka, fantails and kereru abound on the mountain during the day and at night the call of kiwi and moreporks can be heard from the comfort of your spa. Maungatautari has the only pair of breeding takahe on mainland North Island New Zealand. Enjoy the birdlife from the metalled tracks in the southern enclosure, along the two hour trek to Pukeatua peak, or via the 6 hour tramp across the mountain. Out in the Styx Guesthouse is also a great base for trips in and around the Waikato. Within one and a half hours you can visit the Whangamarino wetland or Miranda shorebird sanctuary to the north, Waitomo and nearby Rurakuri walk to the south, or Rotorua to the east.
