Awatere River
The Awatere River is a large river flowing through Marlborough, New Zealand. Flowing along a geological fault-line, it runs northeast through a straight valley to the west of the Inland Kaikoura mountains. This valley is parallel with that of the Clarence River, 20 kilometres to the south.
The Awatere flows for 110 kilometres from its source in the mountainous interior to reach the Cook Strait close to the town of Seddon.
