Camp Glenorchy, Eco-Lodge
Glenorchy, Paradise
Camp Glenorchy sits in the heart of the beautiful scenic village of Glenorchy. It encompasses a stunning Homestead and a full range of accommodation options including individual eco-cabins, premium eco-cabins and multi-bed bunkhuts. Camp Glenorchy is New Zealand’s first Net Positive energy visitor destination.
“Camp Glenorchy aims to use 50% less energy and water than similar accommodations by relying on a solar garden and smart lighting; there’s also a smell-free composting toilet in each unit.
The design channels the surrounding valley’s natural beauty through the use of construction materials like recycled timber while still incorporating upscale features like an in-room tablet that enables guests to monitor their energy use.”
