The Scott-Kilvert Hut Campsite sits at Lake Rodway in the Cradle Mountain area of Tasmania, offering tent platforms alongside the historic memorial hut.

The lake is warm enough for swimming in summer, and the location serves as an excellent base for circumnavigating Cradle Mountain and exploring surrounding tracks, including the Twisted Lakes route.

The hut itself was built within a year of a 1965 tragedy in which Ewen Scott and David Kilvert — a teacher and student from Riverside High School — perished in blizzard conditions during a school excursion in the area.

The Launceston Walking Club, along with parents and friends of the school, constructed the hut as a memorial and to provide emergency shelter for future visitors.

Materials including timber, gravel, and stone were sourced from near the building site, with funding raised through a public appeal supported by walking clubs and community organisations.
