Scott's Hut

Scott's Hut is an historic shelter located on Ross Island in Antarctica, built by explorer Robert Falcon Scott and his team during their 1910-1913 expedition. It served as a base camp for their journey to the South Pole. The hut is constructed from wood and corrugated iron, designed to withstand the harsh polar environment. Today, it stands as a preserved relic, offering insight into early Antarctic exploration. Its preserved condition allows visitors and researchers to understand the difficulties faced by explorers in one of the most extreme climates on Earth.
