We hope you enjoy your stay and take the time to explore, get to know us and our beautiful landscape, history and people. The Whanganui River, Te Awa o Whanganui, is the longest navigable river in New Zealand and an integral part of our district, shaping the development, settlement and history of both early Māori and European settlers. Blessed with an abundance of natural attributes, unspoilt native forest, a temperate climate with above average sunshine hours and stunning west coast beaches, Whanganui has attracted visitors and residents over the ages. We are big enough to entertain with a multitude of outdoor, cultural activities and events and yet small enough to keep it real. Our manaakitanga (hospitality) is legendary and we keep it casual and friendly. You may notice the two different spellings – Wanganui and Whanganui. The district has used both spellings since the mid-1800’s as local iwi pronounciation makes the ‘wh’ sound similar to ‘what’ and ‘where.’ European settlers then wrote the name as they heard it.

  • Otago Conservancy
    A Directory of Wetlands in New Zealand OTAGO CONSERVANCY Sutton Salt Lake (67) Location: 45o34'S, 170o05'E. 2.7 km from Sutton and 8 km from Middlemarch, Straith-Tari area, Otago Region, South Island. Area: 3.7 ha. Altitude: 250 m. Overview: Sutton Salt Lake is a valuable example of an inland or athalassic saline lake, with a considerable variety of saline habitats around its margin and in adjacent slightly saline boggy depressions. The lake is situated in one of the few areas in New Zealand where conditions favour saline lakes (i.e. where precipitation is lower than evaporation). An endemic aquatic animal, Ephydrella novaezealandiae, is present, and there is an interesting pattern of vegetation zonation. Physical features: Sutton Salt Lake is a natural, inland or athalassic saline lake with an average depth of 30 cm and a salinity of 15%. The lake has no known inflow or outflow. The soils are saline and alkaline at the lake margin (sodium-saturated clays), and surrounded by yellow-grey earths and dry subdygrous Matarae. The parent material is loess. Shallow boggy depressions exist near the lake, and there is a narrow fringe of salt tolerant vegetation at the lake margin. Algal communities are present, and often submerged by lake water. The average annual rainfall is about 480 mm, while annual evaporation is about 710 mm. Ecological features: Sutton Salt Lake is one of only five examples of inland saline habitats of botanical value in Central Otago. This is the only area in New Zealand which is suitable for the existence of this habitat, since in general rainfall is high, evaporation is low, and endorheic drainage systems are absent.

  • NGĀ WAI O TE MĀORI Ngā Tikanga Me Ngā Ture Roia the Waters of the Māori: Māori Law and State Law
    NGĀ WAI O TE MĀORI Ngā Tikanga me Ngā Ture Roia The Waters of the Māori: Māori Law and State Law. A paper prepared for the New Zealand Māori Council 23 January 2017 HE WHAKAMĀRAMA Purpose 1. This paper is for filing in the Waitangi Tribunal in relation to a claim that existing laws do not adequately accommodate the Māori proprietary interest in natural, water resources. The claim was initiated by the New Zealand Māori Council in association with ten tribal groups. It was later accompanied by 166 other Māori groups, whom the Tribunal joined as interested parties. 2. The inquiry has progressed through stage one, where the Tribunal found that a Māori proprietary interest in natural water resources had been proven. The Supreme Court endorsed that finding. A long recess followed while the Crown developed its proposals to reform water laws. 3. In the current stage 2, the Tribunal is considering the adequacy of the Crown’s present and proposed laws. It is anticipated that in the middle of the current year, geothermal water will be addressed as stage 3 and in stage 4, the inquiry may focus on how the Māori interest may be provided for in law. 4.
