Remote high-country huts open new bush routes in New Zealand for MSFS 2024
Tussock Game Creations expands backcountry flying with Kaimanawa and Kaweka Ranges Huts, a wilderness-focused add-on for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. Set deep in New Zealand’s North Island, the rugged terrain of the Kaimanawa and Kaweka Ranges delivers steep ridgelines, winding river valleys, and isolated alpine clearings.
Scattered across this landscape are authentic Department of Conservation (DOC) huts, positioned in remote locations that demand precise short-field technique and careful terrain awareness. Golden-hour arrivals over layered ridges and mist-laced dawn departures enhance the sense of exposure and scale.
The scenery integrates naturally with the simulator’s elevation mesh and vegetation system, ensuring smooth terrain blending and accurate placement within the mountainous environment. It is tailored for bush planes, STOL aircraft, and helicopter operations, emphasizing low-speed control and confined-area landings.
