CSIRO Hut is an Australian alpine hut. The hut was built by the CSIRO in the early 1960s. It was used for researching the control of rabbits in the Kosciuszko National Park. The hut was built in the north-eastern region of Snowy Plain, where the rabbit population was at its worst. In 2000 The CSIRO abandoned the hut and can be used by walkers to this day. The hut is often also called Rabbiters Hut.
