Interesting facts about this location
New River / Kaimata
The New River is a river in the West Coast region of the South Island of New Zealand. It rises in the hills to the west of Lake Brunner and flows down the north edge of the floodplain of the Taramakau River then turns north for about 2 kilometres behind coastal dunes before meeting the Tasman Sea. There was much gold dredging activity around the river. The river's name was formally changed to the dual name New River/Kaimata in 1998 as part of the Ngai Tahu claims settlement.

Taramakau River
The Taramakau River is in the northwest of the South Island of New Zealand. It rises in the Southern Alps, 80 kilometres due east of Hokitika, and immediately below the saddle of the Harper's Pass, and runs westward for 75 kilometres into the Tasman Sea 15 kilometres south of Greymouth. Several small rivers are tributaries of the Taramakau, but the only one of note is the Otira River, the valley of which forms the western approach to Arthur's Pass.

It was converted into a railway in 1893, and this time, ran from Paroa to Hokitika rather than Kumara.
