MacIntyres Hut

Known as Flea Creek Hut or MacIntyres Hut

Located on the Goodradigbee River, accessible by 4WD from Canberra via Piccadilly Circus to Brindabella Road. Turn right about half way down to the Valley from PC and follow the road past Flea Creek, up hill then left down a steep incline to the hut. Warning, this is a tough 4WD trip if the road is wet. The hut is shown on the Brindabella 1:100,00 map at GR 580958 or on the Bobby Plains 1:25,000 map.

History

Built by Bill MacIntyre in the 1960's. Made famous as the starting point for one of the main fires in January 2003.

MacIntryres Hut has recently been rebuilt, as a very popular destination for (keen) four wheel drivers, motor-cyclists and fisher-folk.

The hut is on the edge of the Goodradigbee River and being in NSW is outside of Namadgi - Is it inside Brindabella NP? A great place to camp.

Construction

Poles and iron. Wooden floor and two windows plus a gable roof and veranda.

Caretakers - 4WD Clubs.
