Overview

Welcome to Kakapo Lodge we are a warm, and friendly hostel that provides quality and affordable accomodation in Hanmer Springs

Kakapo Lodge Backpackers, Hanmer Springs YHA is a two-storey, purpose-built backpackers lodge with a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

We are located a 2-minute walk from the thermal reserve and the village centre.

Downstairs are the Computer Terminals which offer Internet as well as a place to upload all of your great holiday snaps. WiFi is available throughout the hostel.
