Summer

Nestled in the Southern Alps, the temple basin lodges provide a rare opportunity to experience life in the alpine with all the comforts of home.

Accommodation is a variety of modern bunk-rooms sleeping from 4 to 10 people. Guests need only bring a towel and sleeping bag, with sheets and pillows provided. Hot showers and a drying room (the most powerful in the country) ensure you end each day warm and dry.

The lodge is kitted out with a fully-equipped commercial kitchen, large dining room and lecture theatre, making it the perfect venue for large groups – including schools or retreats. There’s also a bar stocked with snacks, craft beers and locally produced wines.

If you’d like a fully catered experience, enquire about chef-availability for your group.
