Wairau River

The Wairau River is one of the longest rivers in New Zealand's South Island. It flows for 170 kilometres from the Spenser Mountains (a northern range of the Southern Alps), firstly in a northwards direction and then northeast down a long, straight valley in inland Marlborough. The river's lower reaches are noted for the surrounding fertile plain, now one of New Zealand's finest wine producing regions.

Located at -41.5667, 173.517 (Lat. / Lng.), about 1 miles away.
