Welcome to Permolat Southland

We are glad you found our site, have a look around and then decide to volunteer or donate to our endeavors, we are a charity and are tax exempt so we can give you a donation receipt to get your tax back. Contact us to find our more.

We have a list of huts that need anything from a little bit of TLC up to huts that need a complete makeover, take a look at the list on our hut page. You may decide to take on one of these huts and do the makeover yourself, let us know and we will give you all the help you need to make a difference to a remote hut.
We have a list of tracks we are responsible for, these need re-cutting about every three years or so. It is an ongoing project, look at the list an our track page, you may want to take on a track or help cut one yourself, let us know and we will give you all the help you need to make a difference to a remote track.
The ongoing costs for bait and tools etc have been met by individuals to date, usually those who are already volunteering their time so we are asking for a little cash$$$ to keep these initiatives going. We don't need much but we do need regular so thanks in advance for your support. The Whio of Fiordland benefit hugely from the work of Permolat Southland . https://givealittle.co.nz/org/permolat-southland

Life is sometimes a difficult climb but the view is great like the view from the front door of an outback hut, remember, not all who wander are lost.
