Parks Victoria in conjunction with the Victorian High Country Huts Association and Mansfield Shire Council are delighted to announce the King River Hut was officially opened today.
King River Hut, located approximately 43kms east of Mansfield in the Alpine National Park, was identified as a key restoration project following its destruction due to an unattended fire within the hut in July 2008. It was recognised for its significant social values and was regularly used by local Mansfield grazing families including the Hearn’s, Ross’s, Gough’s and the McCormack’s.
